In January 1999, Residential Services at the University of Dayton awarded a Special Interest House to Black Action Thru Unity. Five same-sex B.A.T.U. members must occupy the house each year. The purpose of the B.A.T.U. house is to offer a "home away from home" atmosphere. It provides a welcoming meeting place for all members of B.A.T.U. and the UD community. The house is registered as a UD Help House and is located in the south student neighborhood affectionately referred to as the "Ghetto". In its first year, the five female occupants hosted a number of events. These events included birthday parties,  Soul Food dinner, Homecoming Open House, Unity Series-dinners and discussions, and the Prospective Student Weekend cookout. This upcoming school-year the five male occupants plan to  carry on this new B.A.T.U. tradition.
