houses
by: asdThis might be a dumb question so im embracing for the comments haha. I was just wondering why URI couldnt give the old TEP house to a frat now who doesnt have a house on campus?

While the property is URI's, the structure is likely owned by a group from the fraternity (most have a House Corporation of alumni that manage the property locally). They would have involvement in what becomes of the house.
Also, that house was a run down dump even when members lived there. It is beyond renovating, it would need to be razed and another facility built in its place. A group would either have to have the money to build, or qualify for financing (unlikely right now), or URI could build there and rent/lease (which they have never done).

Well URI actually has purchased greek property and razed it or renovated for new buildings. One of the international houses, TI tech I thinks the name, used to be SAEs before they got kicked off. The Alumni center is where sigma chis house used to be. The womens center was a fraternity house. And the office of undergrade admissions was Theta Chis house.
So URI could try and buy the property. I doubt they will settle with keeping a run down unused building on their campus.
