You guys get to use goats? We have to use sheep, but then again Little BoPeep IS one of our most famousist alumna (and I know that's true 'cause I saw it on a chapter's website!)

Try keeping a pride of lions around! It's not like they can be transported from chapter to chapter for each initiation! And the ER costs for the lion bites? Sometimes I think half of the initiation fees are solely for those!

At my school, all org's have houses, our house was built specifically for my organization and it is a big recruitment tool. I lived in the house for 2 years and loved ever second of it (even the bad stuff). I'm not sure what a campus would be like without a house (houses), but we used it as a meeting place mainly, and as long as you have that, I would imagine that it would work very well

Commonly, if all are on the same playing field it is a lot easier.

When one has the edge, a house maybe, it helps. But as another poster mentioned, it can be a lot of money to have to handle.

Dorm floors are more usual as Astro said as I know where she went to school. Many of the Fraternities had the same thing and some are doing quite well. But, times may have changed since I was there.

All GLOs at my Alma Mater PSU-Ks, have houses and have for years.

The main thing is to have a place that you all can get together with each other. If a floor, you can open the doors for a good old gathering!

If a few members have a rental house off campus it too can give a central place to hang!
