Our Dream for
Tau Beta's Next 100 Years
5
T
he time has come to pursue a plan that will address the
long-term viability of our house on South Monroe Street.
Previous major renovations to the Chapter House addressed several
key issues and at the time provided Tau Beta with a premier facility
on campus. However, we believe we must consider rebuilding the
Chapter House to meet the needs of current and future Chi Omegas.
In May 2018, the Tau Beta House Corporation Board partnered with
Selser Schaefer Architects in Tulsa to formulate plans for the future of
Chi Omega at Oklahoma State University.
