I think so the Chi O house looked beautiful from the outside. The only house my friend's daughter told me about was Tri Delt. She also had a Tri Delt friend that took my daughter to the house for a quick visit. I think the girls move out at the end of the year....

On a related note, I wondered why the SDT at Bama is so small relative to the others. Even though they don't participate in formal recruitment, I figured they would have larger classes than they do, given how big Greek life is there. Is the chapter just smaller by choice?

I believe that they do retain much of the sorority's original Jewish focus.

Ah. Do you know if they have a house? I thought they did, but looking at their website again, I'm not sure.

No, SDT does not have another house. Never have had another.

As for Tri Delta, they have a lot for the new house and had wanted to start construction this summer but lack of approval by the UA BOT may have pushed that out. The last I heard, only DG and AGD were in line for full approval.

And they've had issues with that house for years. The flat roof leaks a lot and there is no way to add on/reconfigure beyond what they already have. I'm sure they'll be breaking ground soon. They need relief!

I've always wondered what shape the bedrooms were in the Tri Delt house. We had round dorms at the U of Hawaii and the rooms were kind of shaped like a pie slice.

Silly question about colonization- what do their quotas look like? I heard somewhere that a colony is allowed to take on more girls to firmly establish themselves, is that true? Do colonies take a good number of upperclassmen?

It depends -- sometimes they are allowed to go over total and pledge average chapter size, for example. I think most groups choose new members from all classes -- It makes sense, so they entire group doesn't graduate at the same time.

^^^Yeah, colonies will typically take a cross section of classes so that the make-up of the colony is similar to the other chapters on campus.

Speaking of Bama houses, apparently Alpha Phi is also getting a new house?

ADPi is still working on their plans...last I heard in March.

Breathtaking.

Am so glad they added some detail. The first drawing I saw was quite plain. This is much more appealing!
