It definitely is! The Delta Delta Delta chapter at Purdue (not too far down the road from the Gamma Phi Beta residence) can house 100 women. Their house was built in 1988 during their centennial year - ah, the things that one remembers from recruitment! It's a beautiful house on the inside, too.

Purdue's Delta Zeta chapter has a gorgeous house as well!

These came up on the old thread linked at the bottom:

Huge three-building FSU Phi Delta Theta complex: http://www.fsuphidelt.org/index.asp?...house.asp#mar2

Gigantic one-house FSU Pike house: http://www.fsupikes.com/

And in the works--one gorgeous Phi Psi house at UT: http://www.utphipsi.com/

The first two look pretty plain, IMHO, but the Phi Psi house looks awesome, especially if they're saving a lot of the old house's architectural features (wood paneling, stained glass, etc.) to go into the new house. Does anyone at UT know if they've got it finished yet? The plans are beautiful!

That's what I loved about that house's plans--it's more like a house. The FSU pair look like some of the boring newer dorms here at Baylor. Nothing special.

I doubt it's the largest, but it's still large: the Fiji house at Univ. of Washington is big, beautiful and yet kinda mysterious and creepy from the outside. It's always dark when I drive by. http://uwgreeks.com/ifc/profiles/PhiGammaDelta.php The Sigma Chi house at UW is pretty big too.

I've always thought this was the pimpest Snake (ΣN) house. Ole Miss - I think they have like 180 members (site says 193, but it may be a little old).


FRONT:



INSIDE:



Need to find out how many it houses tho....

My sister-in-law was an AXiD at Purdue. Unforunately, they got initiated and then the chapter shut down so they all had to go alum. Then they reopened the next year with all new girls. I remember her saying their house was beautiful. I need to go check it out on the website (if there are pictures).

Yeah, I'm thinking Indiana may take it with their house. Your chapter houses are gorgeous (except for Georgia Tech, but it's a tech school so I'm not surprised.).

It wouldn't surprise me if IU had the largest houses for many GLOs. The IU houses are ginormous! Almost all the sororities have well over 100 members, with most living in the house.

I've heard the largest Alpha Phi house is at the University of Oklahoma; which is why it was so important to recolonize there...since we own property...Does anyone know if that's true? I didn't go to a school with a Greek Row...so I definitely have trouble relating to the "house" experience.

Most of the houses at U of I are not that big. Well, they're big, but they don't necessarily sleep as many as other schools. For example, the AOII house slept 66. The chapter was huge, but most members only lived in the house for 1 or 2 years. The AOII house seemed about the same size as most of the other NPCs on campus. I would guess most houses slept in the 60-80 range. The sorority houses at Oklahoma are much bigger than Illinois (and consequently, most members are required to live in house for 3 years.) I would guess that the new AOII house at Indiana would be our largest house, but we're building a doozie at Arkansas.
