Units in the single men's apartment building can be used by married couples. There is a nursery on the lower level of the apartment building. More than 65 per cent of Phi Chi actives on the U-M campus are married. Earlier, this posed a threat to fraternity life, leading alumni officials to have a fraternity installation designed that would revive the fraternity and provide for actives' housing-social needs.
