Vision
We envision a new partnership between the University and the fraternities
and sororities of NC STATE for future redevelopment of the Greek Court campus
neighborhood. We envision a mutually beneficial public-private partnership
that will allow for development of a new community. This new development will
enhance our fraternity and sorority chapters by improving housing for members,
strengthening our relations with alumni/ae, and ensuring a long-term future
for our organizations.
-
An attractive Greek Court will serve to support the Greek Community to
recruit new members, to increase the number of individuals and chapters for
our campus, and to enhance alumni support in the future.
- Greek Court should
become a more active, dynamic place. Increased traffic and visibility will
help the University Community to be aware of Greek Court, and the activities
held there.
- The land that has been occupied by Greek chapters for over
40 years must
continue to be available to Greek letter organizations in the future. The
development of Centennial Campus and the improvements to Varsity Drive
will make the Greek Court area even more attractive to students.
- Greek
Court should be connected to the rest of the University through walkways,
bike paths, and roads. The University should view Greek Court as an integral
part of the campus, not an isolated area.
- Greek Court will offer a variety
of housing options for NC STATE fraternities and sororities. Chapters will
be able to construct new houses on land leased from NC STATE, or continue
to rent existing renovated houses on Greek Court. There may be a need to
construct additional University owned facilities for rental to small organizations.
- Greek Court should include amenities such as recreational fields and outdoor
gathering spaces so that members of the Greek Community can have places
to come together.
- The redevelopment of Greek Court may evolve over decades,
and should be planned in such a way to allow for gradual change.
- Greek
Court will become the true center of the NC STATE Greek community, with
housing options that are attractive to all facets of our community.
- Greek
Court will have new facilities designed to meet the needs of current
students and organizations.
