I can't really compare my experience with the IU unhoused sororities because we did live together on campus. It wasn't a traditional house, but we were together on our dorm floor, were given chapter rooms and decorating freedom by our university. Being together was essential to the experience. It was also the norm on my campus. Each campus is unique.
So you're right in a sense that it's not the "house" that makes the sorority close, but having that common place to go to and hang out, day after day, whether it be in a house or a dorm is a good thing.

I am so sorry for your daughter......it makes me very sad. I went through IU rush last year with my step daughter and it was brutal....she ended up very happy in the house she wanted but I have emphasized to her as much as possible how fortunate she was.....
