I am not exactly sure why other sororities are there but AXO and Theta were founded in Greencastle Indiana and I think that is why our headquarters are there.

There is something about the Tax laws of Indianapolis that make it favorable to stick HQ's there.

Ripped from DU's page:

"Founders Road now hosts nine men's and women's fraternity headquarters, and there are nearly 30 fraternity headquarters in the greater Indianapolis area."

Delta Zeta's headquarters are in Oxford, Ohio, where we were founded. I guess I had always assumed everyone had their headquarters where they were founded, but now see that that is not the case.

Just curious as to where everyone's HQ's are located?

Question

This was another thread back when and no one had a definitive answer!

Yes, LXA is on Founders Road! I beleive it was one of the first!

I would say it is not in the middle of the country! Kansas IS!!!

It would be great if All of the International or National Greeks were in Kansas City Area! Then we could meet have a hell of a party and make people think we are really crazy!

Maybe we could meet at the new Kansas Speedway, it only holds 75,000! Soon to be 150,000!

Damn can you imagine that many of us in one place at one time!?????

Beta Theta Pi, Phi Delta Theta, Alpha Delta Phi, Delta Zeta and Delta Sigma Pi are all in Oxford, OH.

The reason why there are so many in Indy., so I have been told, is because it is a very central location within the U.S. and easy access for the Easterners and Westerners to meet (back in the day).

This is a front picture of the Beta Headquarters. It is on 8 acres of land, with a gigantic pond (Stocked with Trout) and then in the back, is our Hall of Chapters with walkways of engraved bricks of individual members and chapters.

DPhiE HQ was in St Louis and is now in Maryland Heights (which I believe is just outside of St. Louis).
