In 1925 the Theta Chi fraternity
at Dickinson College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania purchased the former Long residence at 270 West High Street, adjacent to
the former
home of Abram Bosler, class of 1905. Before the fraternity could
move in, the house was completely remodeled at a cost of $32,000; some
of the renovation included the addition of new heating and plumbing systems,
a new porch, and a stucco exterior. The members dedicated their new home
in 1926.
During the Second World War, the house was rented out to the College
for use as a dormitory, but the members of Theta Chi returned to their
home in the summer of 1946. The fraternity would occupy this house until
1964 when they moved into Quad
2 (now Buchanan Hall) in the Fraternity
Quadrangle. The building was later torn down.
