Prior to the 1960s, most fraternities at the University of Central Missouri had off campus houses surrounding campus. After fires at the Tau Kappa Epsilon and Acacia houses, fraternities and sororities were consolidated into university-owned buildings resembling residence halls - known as Panhellenic Hall and the Fraternity Complex. The Fraternity Complex is an octagon-shaped building consisting of 8 "wedges", each holding one Greek chapter, with the center originally containing a dining hall. This design won an architectural award soon after its construction. This tradition continued until the fall semester of 2005 when Sigma Phi Epsilon opened an off-campus traditional Greek house, and Sigma Nu began construction of a similar house off campus as well and was finished by Fall 2006. However, soon after completion of the Sigma Nu house, the chapter's charter was revoked following a hazing incident. The house was leased to the UCM chapter of Alpha Tau Omega in the summer of 2007.
