In summary, we can no longer meet the needs of our chapter without a dorm wing to house members, nor can we sustain the future viability of our chapter without updating other parts of our property. For ΣAE to remain a premier Old Row fraternity, we must create a home that will attract quality members for years to come. Recently, Sigma Alpha Epsilon alumni leadership has been assessing our future. e dorms need to be replaced and the barn and chapter house updated for ΣAE to remain a leader on campus and to provide a productive, quality living environment that will continue to serve young college men through the century. p A RECOGNIZED STANDARD OF EXCELLENCE Other Greek houses are not our only competition. Our plan will ensure that Alabama Alpha-Mu remains competitive with new student housing and apartment complexes on and around Auburn's campus that are providing high-quality amenities. New dorms with increased efficiency and living upgrades will make the Sigma Alpha Epsilon house the gold standard of campus living for the next generation of our brothers. p KEEPING OUR BROTHERS SAFE e need for a safe home where both brothers and their parents feel secure is critical for our continued success. To ensure the safety of our members and to meet current Auburn housing codes, the house corporation knows that we need to make a significant investment in upgrading our housing position. e existing infrastructure is worn, broken down, and does not reflect the quality of the rest of the property. It is our top priority to create a safe environment for our brothers living in the house. p PRESERVING OUR LEGACY Sigma Alpha Epsilon's importance to Auburn University must not be understated. Membership in Alabama Alpha-Mu Chapter creates a support system and deeper connection to the campus by providing a sense of belonging and community throughout very formative years of our lives. With the steady increase of Greek life at Auburn each year, we can no longer adequately accommodate our members. Currently, no one can live in the house; our new dorm is designed to comfortably house 52 members. OUR NEED TO MAKE A SIGNIFICANT MOVE W hile the Alabama Alpha-Mu experience is certainly more than the bricks and mortar of the house, our home on W. Magnolia Avenue undoubtedly plays a significant role as a living and learning center and stands as a proud monument to our outstanding history at Auburn University.
