LOL.
The weather there is also much different than down south so the houses show wear and tear more quickly. I'm sorry they had to be condemned (112 fire code violations? how long has it been since their last inspection, for goodness sake??), but it sounds like it may be what had to happen to get their nationals' and alumni's attention to the need to fix these houses. I can only imagine a Mom's reaction to driving up to where her "baby" lives and see boarded up windows... and don't the housing corps/nationals have RM concerns for the members they have living there? Anyway, hope they all get back up and running, this may end up being their best recruiting tool in a couple years, when their houses are up to code and spiffied up.
(but psst... fellas, might want to take your letters down in the meantime, not the best advertising right next to the "condemned" signs... 
)
ETA: just saw the post about the windows being boarded after the condemnations... makes sense.
