National HQ in Indianapolis
I read somewhere that the reason so many fraternities and sororities are headquartered in Indianapolis is because they give them a large tax break. Does anyone know the particulars on that?

I wish I could help, but I'm clueless about it too. Is that why many Greeks are also headquartered in Memphis? ------------------ "Talk doesn't cook rice."--Someone smart Visit Alpha Gamma Delta-Delta Sigma chapter and help some sisters out! |
I know that Delta Sigma Phi's headquarter is in Indiana ...not sure whether it is in Indianapolis.

Okay, I did a search on Google, these are the GLOs HQed on Founders Road, Indianapolis, IN. This may not be all of them, but here's a few:
Alpha Gamma Delta Tau Kappa Epsilon Sigma Kappa Lambda Chi Alpha Alpha Xi Delta Delta Upsilon Zeta Tau Alpha Kappa Alpha Theta Theta Chi These are the ones that I found from my search...if anyone knows more, feel free to add it on! ------------------ "Talk doesn't cook rice."--Someone smart Visit Alpha Gamma Delta-Delta Sigma chapter and help some sisters out!

Yes, the Delta Upsilon International Headquarters are in Indianapolis, among many others, because of the tax breaks they give non-profit organizations. There are a lot of other non-profit organizations there besides greek orgs.

Kappa Delta HQ is also in Memphis and I think AOPi is moving theirs to TN too, but not in Memphis. I think AOPi is dedicating it soon. I could be wrong, but I just heard that at Something of Value.
I don't know why HQ's are in cities together, I would assume they all choose a central location in the middle of most of the chapters. |
Brian, I just checked out your DU website - it's great!!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif and your house is gorgeous! keep up the good work! by the way, do you know susan wagner? she's a junior, but i can't remember which house she's in http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/confused.gif we're old high school friends http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif oh, and, what pictures are you in???

There are lots of GLO's HQ in Indianapolis. There are 2 main reasons:
1)Tax breaks for non-profit organizations 2)Indianapolis is considered "the cross-roads of America"... it's pretty central, close to several other cities, and lots of major interstated cross through the city. ------------------ SilverTurtle@greekchat.com Phi Beta Fraternity Phi chapter |
Brian's right. My Fraternity's Headquarters is located at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. We were founded there on August 8, 1839.

Iowa,
Thanks for the compliments! When I started pledging last September, our website consisted of about 4 pages, and most of it was news from over a year ago. So while pledging I decided to show the chapter how dedicated I was and that is what turned out. I'm afraid I don't know Susan Wagner, sorry. I'm in a few of the pictures, the newest ones being the Puddle Pull photos. If you go to the link below, I'm in some of the pictures, specifically the ones named du6.jpg and du7.jpg -- I'm the guy in the front pit sitting there staring down our opponents who can't be seen in the picture http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif Here's that link: http://www.dlugosz.net/~mudeltau/php...e=512&start=12 |
Our headquarters (Delta Phi Epsilon) is in St. Louis, MO, and someone else's is there too, but I don't know who that is.

AOII has been located in Brentwood, TN, a suburb of Nashville, for many years. We just built a NEW International Headquarters facilty that was dedicated on April 21.

Kappa Sigma's International Memorial Headquarters is located in Charlottesville, VA - just off the UVA campus, where our first chapter (zeta) was founded. I actually visited during spring break - it was pretty amazing.
