old frat houses

by:    

Did frats have houses back in the day or did they just party on the quad? I know Pikes house was mellow mushroom and AGR bought their house in the seventies. Anybody know who built the kappa sig house or if the whitehouse was always a frat house?

Everyone pretty much partied in the quad up until the early 2000's. Even heard a story of guys installing keg taps in the walls and running the lines to a room with multiple kegs. There were off campus houses like pike's but they weren't used nearly as much as we use the off campus ones today

Pi Kapp had Kappa Sig's house until they were kicked off in 2011.

And Kappa Sig had The house before Pi Kapp had it then. When they were kicked off they let Pi Kapp rent it out.

not true at all. a bunch of Pi Kapps in the mid 90s bought it from the landlord. KS never had a house until recently.

KA, SN and SAE all had houses but they were owned by alumni and eventually taken away. ATO has the old SAE house. SN's was sold and KA, I think still has their's but they aren't allowed to use it.

Back in the day, everyone had party houses that were further away - KA's Lodge, SN's Lake House, SAE's Ski Lodge so did Phi Delt, LXA, Delta Chi in Six Mile or Seneca.

Pike and AGR were the closest except for Beta who originally had the "White House" in the 80s & 90s they got kicked out then Pi Kapp had it for a year before they bought the apartment building that is now the KS house.

parties in the quad - 80s, early 90s - ended when a girl fell out of ATOs window and died.

off campus party houses far away from campus - mid 90s - 00s - end when SN pledge dies of alcohol poisoning and the alumni sold there house.

current crack down, end of greek parties - caused by stupid Sig Ep killing a pledge

Gentry hall on old Greenville highway used to be the Fiji house, so them, Pike and Pi Kapp had houses on that street, and the ski lodge and White House were a street back. Wouldn't be surprised if more frats had houses in that neighborhood too

Didn't know Fiji was every around long enough to have a house. Pike has been out on 93 since the 70s. The orginal KA house was the Mellow Mushroom and SAE and Beta were on North Clemson. ATO had a house close to AGR.

Those where the only close to campus. SX, DX, Phi Delt and LXA all had places far away and SN had Danny Ford's old house on the lake.

There has never been a Greek Row unfortunately. If AGR and KS can raise enough money from the alumni I am sure KA, ATO & SN can.

Old Greenville highway/north Clemson ave/wigington street is basically an unofficial frat row, got kappa sig, the ski lodge, the White House and the compound, too bad Beta lost their house, it would be cool to have a couple more frat houses in that area

DX built that house so definitely wasn't XPhi before.

By: nah
by: Ted   

Not sure where you heard that buts it's definitely not true, Chi Phi built that house before they got kicked off

Was the compound always a frat house?

What about Theta Chii, Fiji, ATO and Sigma Pi?

I heard SAE used to have a cabin somewhere?

I need answers ... I’m making a 3 volume definitive and comprehensive history of Clemson frat houses, I don’t mean to spoil the ending but to summarize it ... it involved Phi Delt g.a.y.zing their pledges and the honorable Mr. Slann selling their beloved compound were they used to throw “legendary” parties and held their annual F.A.G. Wash! I’ve pitched it to several editors ... I’m getting positive feedback!

IS this volume 3 history of houses finished? I'm trying to find the history of all these old houses. I've been trying to find addresses and photos of the old SAE and SNU house but no luck so far.
