As an outsider to the school, it seems really practical on the part of the school. They know enough to know that 1-there is tremendous need for sorority housing on campus and 2-you can't develop more housing without a plan. If, using Alpha Phi as our example, they had to be the only house built several blocks away, their success would be seriously diminished. So if the school provides ground for 5 houses all together, then colony expansion would be much more likely. And more likely to succeed. Now, not knowing the school or the houses, I'm wondering if any existing sororities could be incentivized to move to a new Sorority Row. I think that would probably help.
