Hi Everyone!
I wanted to clear a few things up about the Chi Chapter House and Alpha Gamma Delta returning to MSU's campus...
The original house occupied by Chi Chapter was indeed designed by Emily Helen Butterfield; however, that is not the house that was last owned and used by Chi Chapter. The Chi Chapter house has not been sold and there are no plans to put it on the market. It is possible however, that it could be leased to another women's group.
Returning to Michigan State depends on several factors. Alpha Gamma Delta is second in line to return, behind Alpha Xi Delta Fraternity. In colonizing or re-colonizing on a campus, the recruitment statistics for the last three to five years are carefully evaluated, as well as projected growth of the college/university, and several other factors such as alumnae support and availability of advisors--part of the lifetime involvement we pledge. The Fraternity certainly wants to return to MSU, but only if Chi Chapter is successful and provides the members and new members with a positive Fraternity experience.
Hope this clears things up a bit for everyone!
