The project scope includes the construction of a new chapter house for the Kappa Sigma fraternity. The house will be located between Sigma Phi Epsilon and Pi Kappa Alpha and will be approximately 29,000 square feet (increased from an original 28,000 square foot programmed space), consisting of two floors, including a main level for dining and gathering spaces and a second level for member sleeping rooms.
The massing, architecture and materials of the house will be consistent with the other chapters in that area of University Boulevard.
A new chapter house will allow the chapter to comfortably accommodate the projected chapter size and the growing Greek community.
This proposed project will enhance the living experience for existing student members as well as future members. Bed capacity will increase from 27 to approximately 44 (previously designed as 40 plus study spaces) and seating for dining and chapter meetings will increase from 60 to approximately 125.
The facility will provide space more appropriate to current trends in Greek life and will enhance both functional and programmatic use.
