I know in Pennsylvania we have the brothel law too, but I don't know of any schools that do have sorority houses. So i don't know if they enforce it or not, or if schools don't want to take the chance.

My school has an all Greek dorm, but not all the houses are in it. Some houses are having issues with keeping numbers up to fill a floor, while other houses do have enough numbers, but have not been allowed to live there since the chapter is so new. And the administration feels that we (the new chapter) has to prove that we can keep our numbers up. So they have given us 1/2 of a floor in a regular dorm to fill up and we did, so hopefully they will let us move to the Greek dorm within the next year or two.

These dorms were owned by the Unversity and were esstentinaly dorm bulidings on campus that specfic sororities were allowed to use. This seems like an internresting alternative to such laws, even if it is not a house.

Sorry - I got multiple quote happy. I was just scanning posts for "brothel law." So edited.

Where in PA (WHO DOES NOT HAVE A BROTHEL LAW) is this all-Greek dorm? I assume you're at a private school.
