Forever Home
603 Kentucky
Alpha Mu Chapter of Kappa Alpha Theta at the University of Missouri
P
hase II of construction involves reconfiguring
the first floor to maximize study and meeting
spaces, adding additional restrooms for
guest use on the first floor, and filling in the courtyard to
add additional bedrooms. We've been so pleased by the
progress, which took a brief hiatus during
work week and recruitment.
Although the chapter house is only half
full this year due to the construction, when
it is finished, more than 100 women will
be able to live in each semester. With the
help of your continued donations, we will
complete the final phase of construction by
fall 2017. Phase III involves renovating the
original portion of the first floor, updating
old addition bedrooms, and expanding
existing bathrooms and the house's laundry
facilities. We know these updates will serve
the needs of our members for years to come.
This project has been made possible by the donations of
our generous alumnae. If you still want to learn more about
the project before making your pledge, please let us know.
As it was last fall, it was a pleasure to see so many of you
return to 603 for football weekend tailgates on the new Theta
patio. We hope to see you on the patio again next fall during
football season. Patio parties are a great opportunity to see
our home's new spaces. Also, be sure to follow our furniture
sale on Facebook if you'd like a piece of Theta in your own
home. View page 6 if you need the link to that sale.
Those who have been able to return to the house have
hopefully seen the amazing collection of historic photos in
the dining room. Although we have many
historic items, we are eager to display
more to highlight our chapter's long
legacy. If you have any historic photos or
other items for display in the house that
you could donate, please reach out to
me or FCB treasurer Annie Hildebrandt
at hildebrandtannie@gmail.com by
December 31. Our interior designers
would love to have more to work with!
On behalf of the Facility Corporation Board
and our amazing collegians (including 82
new members!), we thank you for your
support during this construction project. It's
a privilege to serve the chapter during this
exciting time, and we hope you all have the opportunity to
soon visit our forever home on Kentucky Boulevard.
Loyally in Theta,
