It's actually a house for foster kids who go to UCLA.

It is sad that word around campus is that this house is a homeless shelter.

Oh man that's cruel  It seems like a wonderful idea that I wish colleges took advantage of more (similar to the on campus food pantries for poorer students)

Re UCLA, if the houses only hold 60 and if there are problems with getting people to live in (as mentioned in another thread) they might not be in any hurry to decrease chapter total.

I would be surprised to learn that UCLA groups would have trouble filling houses, because housing there is super tight and costs a fortune. Most of the on-campus housing is teeny forced triples. It's a different scene from a college town in the South or Midwest where you can get a conveniently located apartment with your own bedroom and bath and free parking for a similar cost to a sorority house with little privacy.
