Virginia Tech Zeta Psi House Burns Down

[OzzyGrl7]

This has recently happened on our campus. It was a terrible tragedy, thank God no one was hurt. The brothers living in the house lost pretty much everything, and its worse knowing that the fire might have been set purposefully. I know the Virginia Tech community is doing as much as they can to help the brothers of Zeta Psi through this. The brotherhood within Zeta Psi is so strong and it has been shown to the whole community as the chapter and its alum have started to work together to mend the house and the lives of those affected.

What a waste. The Minnesota house was torched last January, and it's still not finished. The worst of it is the time it takes to deal with the contractors and insurance companies.
Thanks, OzzyGrl and CanadianZete for posting the info.

Hello all,

I'm a brother here at the Alpha Pi chapter and I'm happy to say that we've been going strong as it has been the 2-year anniversary since the fire. A year after it burned down, the house was rededicated and our involvement within our community has been stronger than ever. This weekend is our alumni weekend and we are expecting 140 alumni visiting.
