The interest by women wanting to be members of sororities at Alabama is very high. Almost twice as many women go thru their formal recruitment as the number at Auburn, and Alabama has one less sorority. Because NPC requires all campus panhellenics (save Indiana) to use RFM during formal rush that pretty much guarantees any woman "maximizing her options" will receive a bid, thus the huge Alabama new member classes. That said, having houses to live in at Auburn must be a unanimous decision made by all the groups currently at Auburn. Campus admins and city leaders should also be on board for them to have housing, considering the extra security and city amenities houses require. Forming a committee to look into houses for all our groups is acceptable, but since we have good student housing available there does not appear to be a need nor priority for same. As others here have stated, houses are very expensive to build and maintain. Many NPC sororities have built expensive brand new houses and repaired old housing at campuses nationwide during the past seven years of sorority growth. But this Fall there appears to be a lull in nationwide sorority chapter growth; there are not as many campuses Open For Expansion as in recent years. We may yet see Auburn sorority interest plateau or fall. While regular sorority houses would be nice, the subject just does not seem a priority here and current housing options for sorority women are affordable and acceptable.
