Yes, KA is currently on New Row, but they are still "Old Row." They're considered "Old Row" because the term comes from the original fraternity houses that were on Auburn's oldest and first fraternity row. The term is still flawed because there are fraternities in Auburn that were not on that row that still call themselves "Old Row." In fact, the Old Row shirt that you see guys wearing is very incorrect. On it are, SAE, SN, SX, KA, Sig Ep, and Pike when KA and SN are the only one's that rightfully deserve a place on it. Auburn's first fraternity row, "Old Row," consisted of 7 houses up to 1940... The houses built on it after 1940 are not considered "Old Row" because by then, half of the Original Houses had relocated to a newer row. The 7 Original fraternity houses on the "Old Row" were: KA, Phi Delt, Delta Sig, Theta Chi, Sigma Nu, Pi Kapp, and AGR. Those are the ONLY fraternities that have the right to call themselves "Old Row." Ironic because 6 of the 7 are currently on New Row. Keep in mind that many will call BS because these aren't all the 7 OLDEST fraternities. Many of the oldest fraternities didn't have houses until decades after their founding, or had houses after these 7 and were not on the original "Old Row." All of this information can be found in black and white in a published book called "Lost Auburn: A Village Remembered in Period" and Auburn's Fraternity (History) Database.
