Missouri University of Science & Tech ('14 Q=41, '13 Q=23, '12 Q=27, '11 Q=27)

I honestly don't see us opening up for expansion in the next three years. Despite growing numbers and smaller spaces (Zeta had to do big sis reveal in the student union), there aren't enough girls to support a whole other chapter. Total is around 101 and only ChiO doesn't have to COB most likely. This school has just a small proportion of girls, so I see it unlikely to get a fourth NPC group soon. Our only NPHC sorority, Delta Sigma Theta, is dormant now that the only member graduated.

Zeta does want a new house which if they get, I assume it will be built on their current property and that will solve their space issue. But otherwise campus is in a weird position with housing.

The university closed down a hall complex and plans to demo and rebuild, and also to build on another plot of land. But this school is bad at getting buildings started being built, so it will be a couple of years at least until we see progress. Res Life was actually encouraging students to go greek so they'd have a real place to stay and alleviate space issues (in the closed complex one of the halls is up and running and another was reopened at the beginning of the year due to lack of room for students. Students were also placed in a hotel and in rooms in the traditional dorm that were originally study rooms)

Since there is no space on campus, there has been a building boom in town and sophomores on up living off campus. There's not much, if anything, to build on anywhere near campus that would be good for a sorority (all three are within two blocks of campus).
