For KillarneyRose and any other Pitt people, they
finally put the floor plan of Amos Hall online. For those who don't know, the Schenley Apartments were
the apartments for the rich & famous from 1927-1950, when Pitt bought it. It became the Schenley Quadrangle, and since Building A (Amos Hall) was considered the toniest, the sororities were forced to relocate there in 1959-60. The only exception were KKG & Theta, who had just built a duplex together. Oh, at first, each sorority had either half of the floor or a whole floor, according to size but now they all have a full floor.
You can see the floor plan at
here. Unfortunately, they lack the dimensions; the living room is 25'x18'. Each sorority has a different scheme, though - some have a bedroom where the Chapter Room is, and the rooms between #18 & #20 are different now. Right now, it's closed, as there's going to be a major renovation.
Back on track: We once had a HUGE housing corporation fund, enough to buy a house, and we really harped on our alumnae that we wanted one. Once they gave us the figures of what a house would cost, with a housemother, meals, taxes, etc, etc, we happily accepted our suite!
