Houston Greek Row? - Page 2

Well that makes sense! I got a newsletter about Fiesta and our big win! I'm so proud! I always loved Fiesta! My husband (also UH Greek) and I can't wait to get back to the states so we can go as alums!

I guess Sig Ep didn't 'disappear' they just weren't as visible as most of the other groups. They did Fiesta with Phi Mu (I think!) my last year there!

The KA chapter at UH was closed in 1998. However, its Good to see UH is finally getting a Fraternity Row!

Check out Greek Park's websites:

www.bayouoaks-uh.com (the updated one) and www.greekpark.com

I'm moving in on Aug. 18th and I can't wait! It's going to be a blast!

Which fraternities are participating? Which not? Is everyone enthusiastic about the new park?

I just looked at the floor plans for this online and it looks gorgeous! I love how in the suites they gave each person their own sink - that'd be so nice!

Just an Update:

I went to the Bayou Oaks Grand Opening Celebration yesterday and it was great! There was a ton of Greek Alumni, The Board of Regents of the University of Houston System, UH Administrators like Dr. Smith (current President who DU is initiating tonight), Dr. Lee (Vice President of Student Affairs) and his wife Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee and Senator Hutchinson (who's greek too), Houston Alumni Org. reps., SGA president, Campus Activities Advisors, Greek Alumni Council, American Campus Communities reps. and representatives of the actual organizations that will be residing there and tons of other people too. It was really nice to see how our university community pulled together for this beautiful project. All 15 houses are 3 stories, there is a greek promenade(walkway) that displays all of our flags (joetoga.com donated), there's also a clock tower that plays our fight song (yesterday was Dr. Smith's Birthday and it played him "Happy Birthday" on the clock tower at the celebration). The place is beautiful and big. It also has apartments on the property that can house 255 students and the Fraternity/Sorority houses 216 resident combined. Everything is very modern and elegant. I'm excited to be moving in on monday, I'm sure it's going to be fun.

Here are the organizations that are housed there:
1. Sigma Pi
2. Sigma Phi Epsilon
3. Kappa Delta Chi (Sorority)
4. Delta Gamma (Sorority)
5. Alpha Chi Omega (Sorority)
6. Phi Mu (Sorority)
7. Delta Zeta (Sorority)
8. Chi Omega (Sorority)
9. Zeta Tau Alpha (Sorority)
10. Pi Kappa Phi
11. Pi Kappa Alpha
12. Tau Kappa Epsilon
13. Student Athletes
14. Delta Upsilon
15. Sigma Chi

**Sigma Nu has a huge house (built in 98 - I think, Houses 36 guys) directly across the street from bayou oaks
**Phi Kappa Theta has a house down the block bordering the Bayou

Go Coogs!

Sig Ep is doing great! I'm really glad they're moving into greek park. One of my really good friends is a Sig Ep and he's very involved with them and I know they're doing very well.

I'm all moved in.

I'm so jealous! I wish I could be down there! DG is having their open house on Tuesday night for alumnae and parents! I'm stuck in NY, and my doctor won't let me travel! I'm definitely getting down there after the baby's born though! Good luck, y'all!

Sorry to step on any toes SigEp533...when I was at UH THREE years ago, SigEp had a chapter and they were ghosts on campus! My last year there, they were slowly coming out again, I'm very happy that the chapter is thriving now.

I just received a tour of the Delta Gamma house; it’s really nice. I’m sure you’ll love it.
