Merging Schools with chapters of the same org?

I'm one of the SPSU House Managers so I can shed a little light on what's happening.

Currently, there are seven general fraternities and sororities living in the houses (houses 1-3, 7-8, 10) and one professional fraternity (house 9). House 4 has soccer players living there, house 5 has one of the Senior Resident Assistants and a few other people living there (they call it the "gaming house"). House 6 is currently empty.

Any fraternity and sorority currently in the houses will be able to continue living there after the merger (more than likely). The reason KSU doesn't have "designated" Greek housing like SPSU is because of the city of Kennesaw's laws prohibiting designated fraternity and sorority housing. The city of Marietta (SPSU) doesn't have such laws, so that's why we have housing and they don't. Unless KSU wants to make it a school rule, then the SPSU Greek houses should be fine.
