Okay, I came from a colony. We colonized the Eta Kappa chapter of DG here at NCSU. We were chartered in November and promised the house would be done by January, in time for informal rush. Then it was announced that the house wouldn't be done until March. And now it will not be done until August. But it WILL be done in August. Anyway, we had to hold informal rush in different rooms around campus and it was a HUGE problem. It would have been so much easier with a "home base." People got the locations mixed up and missed parties...even some of our sisters got the locations mixed up. I'm thankful that when formal rush comes along we will have a house. Cut DZ a break. It's hard to be new somewhere. Like other people said, not having a house in the first place on a good Greek campus is going to hurt them enough! Don't be selfish. It's unbelievably hard to colonize and get things up and going. Everything has to be built from scratch. Plus, on most Greek campuses, certain sororities and certain fraternities tend to pair off. I know at NCSU there are certain sororities that tend to do things with certain fraternities and vice versa. As a new group on campus, it's natural that all the fraternities want to do things with them, including ATO. You just sound selfish by saying you don't think they should be allowed to use their house. Like everyone has said, the girls will know it's not their house...and it'll hurt them enough already. The Greek community is about helping eachother out. ATO is just trying to help.
