There were several chapters that have recolonized in the last 20 years, AOII, Phi Mu.
And many fraternities survive very well without houses. Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Phi Kappa Tau, DKE have chapters larger than some that are housed. Some of them also return to campus. Delta Chi, Sigma Pi, Sigma Phi Epsilon, and Phi Kappa Sigma have all come back on campus within the last 3 years. As for sororities, Phi Mu actually went 10 years without a house in the 80s. That's the only one I know of for sure.
It can be done, it just has been in a long time since IU had the opportunity for an unhoused chapter. There is so much support from current Greeks on campus for this opportunity to be taken.
And honestly-- aren't the women who would join a chapter even if it didn't have a house the kind of women IU wants in the Greek Community?? Women who are joining because they want real sisterhood and not because sisterhood happens to come with a pretty house to live in?
