Update: Roof Replaced

The chapter house roof has been replaced.  It was determined that we just couldn’t wait much longer without risking more damage to the building.  The costs to replace the roof were financed in to the existing loan on the house.  I will upload some images of the new roof as soon as I can remember to bring my camera to work.  Adding the roof replacement expenses to the house loan has set the undergraduates back even farther towards their goal of paying off the house and saving for the future.  The NEA Alumni Chapter will continue to raise funds to hopefully cover that costs.  So far, we are nearly 20% towards our goal.  If you have yet to give to the roof campaign, you can do so by clicking the banner on the right of this page. 

More information concerning I-Week and our next NEA Alumni Chapter Meeting coming soon!
