WAY impressive!! I looked online and saw that the DGs are going to participate in the first couple of rounds of rush this fall at Bama and then expect to be rushing out of their house by fall 2012. Best wishes to them.
Whoever above wrote that this will be like the NFL draft of sororities, you're right!
And whoever above wrote that they'd be fine without a house, you're wrong. Sorority life at Bama is incredibly competitive for both PNMs and the chapters. If a chapter tried to colonize without a house at Bama, they'd flop. BIG.
Uber impressive!

Greek Girly, I do understand what you mean about the fact that sororities to be competitive need a house -- in the long run HOWEVER, women do not pledge physical structures (houses) they pledge sisterhoods. I have seen amazing groups not only pledge quota but be EXTREMELY ( and I mean EXTREMELY ) competitive even without a house on campus' where other groups have structures.
Just sayin'

How much is that house going to cost?
I tried to look up an average cost per square foot, but is a sorority/fraternity house considered "residential" or "commercial"?

It's not commercial but it's not residential (in terms of 'family').

It's already cost 31 years of my life waiting for my chapter to come back. There is no price on that!

I can't imagine the Bama Tri Delts not having their round house.

I want to be the house mother.
Where is the application?
I can't even imagine what the house mother's quarters will look like. But I'm willing to try, and I have an impeccable resume and great qualifications, if I do say so myself. Hell, I'd do it for FREE just to call that address mine for a while.
Yes, I am using green font because yes, I am green with envy.

Carnation: Well, they won't much longer!
FSUZeta: They were chosen by the UA BOT via application. I believe 5 applied for the 3 lots. DG was guaranteed one of them when they agreed to colonize.
