Did you know the last major update to the Kappa Alpha Mansion was almost 30 years ago?
Three decades of service since her last significant rebuild.
The Mansion is currently in very poor repair and time has come for us to give back.
The house which has served as a competitive recruitment tool during so many Fall rush campaigns has now become a liability. This condition is not related to any one event or any group of members but rather a consistent decline over the last 30 years. Housing 20 men and hosting the best social events on campus takes a toll on a house. Weather and time have also played a significant part. The active chapter made the difficult decision to host rush functions away from the house last fall due to the condition of our house. This is unacceptable for us. The current actives and the future of Gamma Alpha chapter deserve much better.
Over the last 18 months the Gamma Alpha House Corp. has met with architects, builders, and campus officials to determine how to best correct our current housing situation. After careful consideration, and much debate, we have determined a totally new house would not best serve our chapter at this time. The House Corp. feels the chapter will be best served by updating our current structure. This update will include new doors, windows, flooring, and landscaping. We feel this “facelift” will serve our chapter well for the next 10 years and give the active members an ideal location to host events and house the young men.
We have made the decision to begin The Gamma Alpha Alumni Campaign to raise funds for this important project. This will be our chapter’s first significant campaign in over 30 years.
