Everyone remembers the parties at the old Que House on Brush Row Road.
“The parties were wild,” said a member of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, who asked not to be named. “The floors used to shake like an earthquake.”
Those earthquakes have most likely come to end. Central State University has purchased the Que House and converted it into a women’s residence hall. Fourteen students are living in the dorm fall term.
Junior Jesseka Morris is sharing a room with another student. “The house is tolerable,” she said. “There isn’t any WiFi, though. Plus, it’s two people to a very small room.”
Morris said the kitchen ceiling collapsed the start of fall term. She said students have also found mice in the house. Residence Life Interim Director Justyn Fry said that the university is still renovating the home.
The fraternity member said that the Ques had been trying to renovate the house themselves.“It's no secret the house was falling apart,” he said. “We were working on that.”
He also reminded students that the Ques are still on campus. “We’re still here, just not over there (pointing in the direction of the home) where you could come in at 3 p.m. or 3 a.m.”
Central State has purchased 11 properties in Wilberforce over the last eight years. Since last spring, it has purchased the Que house, the former College Shop, and four buildings on Shorter Avenue, buildings which once housed students at Payne Theological Seminary.
