Sigma Alpha Epsilon House (c.1900-c.1917)

Around 1900 the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity at Dickinson College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania purchased a three story building located just off of the northeast corner of West and Louther Streets (170 W. Louther). Red brick with white trim, their home was a simple building constructed in the "old style." Here they lived until the house was commandeered for military housing following the outbreak of the First World War. The fraternity then moved into the eastern section of East College for five years before purchasing their second house. The first fraternity house has since been expanded and is currently used for private residence.
