I tried searching and nothing came up, so forgive me if this has already been covered!
Do you think it is necessary for a sorority chapter, on a large greek campus (14 sororities), to have a house? Take into consideration that every other chapter on campus has a house - and I'm talking about large beautiful houses that sleep 40+. Is a house necessary to (and I hate to use this word) compete with the other houses - and is it death not to have one? Has anyone at a large university experienced this?
I ask because this fall a group colonized on campus and I was talking to one of the girls who had been working for the past year to bring them here. I asked her if their nationals were planning on building a house and where were they thinking of building or if maybe there were renting one of the old unused houses on fraternity circle? She told me that their nationals had no intentions of building them a house and that maybe 5 girls would rent out a regular house next year and use that for a chapter house.
Honestly, I would love to see this group succeed, but when she told me this I couldn't help but think, oh gosh, thats going to be the death of them.
What do you think? Is a house necessary in a case like this, when every other chapter has a big, beautiful house - or is it just something extra. Be honest
