When students returned to campus for the spring 2008 semester, Riverside Ave. had a completely different look!  For the first time in Ball State University history Panhellenic sorority women could enjoy the benefits of Greek housing.  

Alpha Gamma Delta, Kappa Alpha Theta, Phi Mu and Sigma Kappa relocated to Riverside Ave. when DeHority residence hall complex closed for renovations in November 2007.  The houses are university owned and managed and house 3-4 members each.  Residents moved in just days before the semester started.  

An open house was held on January 31, 2008 for all fraternity and sorority members and advisors.  University President Dr. Jo Ann Gora spoke on the chilly afternoon about the members of these organizations being trailblazers for a new kind of sorority life at Ball State.  Read the entire story. 

When DeHority reopens in fall 2009, it will not house sorority suites.  These four sororities will remain in the houses until a final decision is made about the future of sorority housing at Ball State.  If the sororities do not want to be part of a Greek Village, alternative plans will be developed.  The ultimate goal is to create a long range plan that is suitable to all Panhellenic sororities at Ball State.
