Current Housing
The Mu-Rho Chapter has been an important and consistent part of Missouri State University since our founding in 1984. To continue our strong brotherhood, the Housing Corporation is committed to securing safe, stable housing that provides opportunities for chapter growth.
Mu-Rho undergraduates and alumni continue to grow the Mu-Rho Housing Fund, which will secure the chapter with a long-term, Mu-Rho-owned property at Missouri State University. In the meantime – and with the ending of our lease at 800 S. National, the Housing Corporation sought out temporary housing options near campus.
In April of 2017, the Housing Corporation secured temporary housing at 316 S. National Avenue. This 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom property will provide housing for 7 brothers, but most importantly, a place for Mu-Rho to call home while the Housing Fund grows.
While 316 S. National will be a comfortable living space, we will continue to keep our primary focus on growing the Housing Fund to a point that allows us to take action towards a permanent chapter house.
To achieve our Housing Fund goal – an aggressive, yet attainable one – it will require the commitment of not just the undergraduates or the Housing Corporation, but all Mu-Rho Kappa Sigmas.
The effort requires a committed group of individuals to lead the charge – this is your Housing Corporation. Additionally, this effort requires that property be secured, professional services contracted and so on. But as we all know, for any of this to be possible, the funds must be available – and this is where we call on all of our fellow brothers.
The Housing Corporation Board has studied options and developed a 5-year plan to raise $250,000 in Phase 1 of the Mu-Rho Housing Fund Campaign. The Phase 1 goal is based on raising 20% of a $1.25 million future facility to continue Mu-Rho’s legacy at Missouri State University.
The future facility will be home to 20+ brothers and provide a state-of-the-art environment for our chapter brothers, while allowing our alumni brothers to enjoy return visits for years to come.
