Sorority Houses a Possibility at U. of Tennessee?

[amIblue?]

I just read an article that 6 of the groups have begun move in and will be hosting recruitment in their houses. The remaining chapters will be hosting recruitment in the panhellenic building with bus service provided between the two locations. I'll rummage around and see if I can find it for posting.

This is not the article that I read earlier, but it is directly from the university. It states that seven houses will be opening this semester. I'll keep looking.

I heard that the plan with the buses will not be decided until August 1.

Actually, the first article that I posted from UT's website states that transportation will be going between the two locations.

"Sorority fall recruitment is set for August 19—26 at the Panhellenic Building on Cumberland Avenue and at the completed properties within Sorority Village, with transportation provided between the two locations."

I assume it will be buses.

My personal opinion is that they should hold recruitment one last time in the Panhellenic building, at least until almost all 13 sororities are in their houses. That being said, three of the strongest recruiting chapters will not have their houses available, and I don't think that will impact those chapters poorly at all.
