Homes on the Hill

In October 1884, not quite a decade after the University of Colorado’s founding, eight women established a Boulder chapter of the Pi Beta Phi women’s society. It was the dawn of Greek life for women at CU. Today, about 3,300 students are involved in ²ÊÃñ±¦µä’s 19 active sororities. Ten have houses on or near The Hill, each with about 60 to 80 resident members. Can you identify any of the sorority houses from these photographs of architectural details?
