Question Ever been to HQ?

Have you ever been inside your IHQ? Ever seen another organization's HQ?

I made my first trip to DC earlier this year. I was able to tour Howard and went to our IHQ.

But I've also seen all of the NPHC sorority headquarters. I've also seen SAE's HQ in Evanston.

Yes! I even got to spend a weekend there while I was interviewing for a TC position. It's a beautiful old mansion in Columbus, OH, which has been historically restored and also serves as our Heritage Museum. I will hopefully be able to get back there someday.

It is on my list of things to do but being in Cali I'd have to make a special "East Coast trip". I would like to see all of the NPHC IHQ's. I think that would be really interesting.

I have spent a lot of time at mine: Beta Theta Pi in Oxford, OH.

I have also been through Phi Delta Theta in Oxford, OH as well as spent some time at SAE in Evanston, IL. We did an initiation in their hall with four other Beta chapters.

i got to see the Phi Kappa Psi headquarters when i interviewed to be an ELC this May. It is super nice. It is more like an old museum. The house is in the Lockerbi Square part of Indianapolis IN and is filled with tons of Phi Psi memorbilia.

Yep. I spent the weekend there back in Feb when I was on our Nominating Committee. I would recommend that everyone take a trip to theirs at least once in their lifetime.

I would love to see others, but not sure I'll ever make it.....

I passed by the Iota Phi Theta Fraternity, Inc. headquarters a few years back. I believe it is in Maryland, close to DC. Very nice building.

I visit AOII's IHQ quite frequently. It is a beautiful structure in the heart of Brentwood, Tennessee, complete with a Jacqueminot Rose garden and museum.

I went when I was passing through Columbus (on the way to Sandusky) on my trip. Got a wonderful tour of the house by Kylie - the curator. AND I got to meet all the lovely women who work at HQ - they are a wonderful group!

The Shrine of Sigma Nu is located in Lexington Virginia. Really nice place. Been there only once though.

I've been to Pi Beta Phi's Headquarters in Town & Country Missouri. I went during a Presidential leadership weekend this past February. It's a brand new building and gorgeous.

I also know where the KA and Sigma Nu HQ are in my college town. I've never actually gone in and visited either one, but I know a lot of the younger guys who work at either place.

I've never been to Lyrecrest, our Evansville, Indiana, HQ. During the school year, Lyrecrest hosts countless chapter retreats, training events and meetings, but I've never made it to one. One day....

I've been lucky enough to visit the prior and current IHQ.
