end the discrimination
by: MichelleBlack Greek lives matter, let's show that. Ucf should give the newly vacant theta chi to a multicultural or historically African American chapter, since NONE have houses.

Those chapters would need to apply for it and have the money ready. The issue is that they're all a lot smaller than the ifc/pan chapters and they simply wouldn't be able to afford the house and they don't have the numbers to fill it. The house isn't a gift, it goes to whoever can pay for it.

Michelle, I agree with you that NPHC/DGC should have a house on campus, but the reality is that those councils tend to be way significantly smaller than IFC/PAN. An average PAN chapter has about 150 women, and an IFC chapter averages around 60. I have a lot of friends in NPHC sororities and they are very small. For the NPHC sorotrities, the AKA's have 34 girls, DST has 12-13 girls, SGR has 3 girls and ZPB has 7 girls. I mean there's no way they can afford a house unless each member is paying $10,000 a semester, basically tuition.
Before throwing the #BlackLivesMatter quote out in the air do your research. If you are in a DGC/NPHC chapter make a checklist:
- Does your chapter have the numbers to fill a house?
- Will your members be able to pay for the house consistently?
- Does the national for your sorority/fraternity want you to live in a greek house on campus?
- Does you chapter/national have the insurance, contracts, liabilities, etc. to get ready to move into the new house?
Additionally, The UCF Greek Life Administration is not just giving them a house because of white privilege. A lot of paper work, insurance, liabilities and contracts go into letting a greek chapter have a house on campus. And the most important is having the money for paying the house. If you ain't got the money, UCF Greek Life Administration doesn't wanna talk.

Houses weren't/aren't just "given" to anyone. The members pay for them. If any other chapters from different Greek councils want houses on campus they need the money and the numbers to fill them. It's not "discrimination" to not hand them a free house when it could go to a chapter that can actually afford it and can fill the beds.

It should be given to DGC/NPHC after the whole rest of the street been given to ifc and pan. It's the right thing to do.
