I've always wished our Panhel did something like this -- less so with IFC as a lot of the frat houses, while gorgeous on the outside, are less so on the inside after a century of college-age boys/men living in them. The sororities are better maintained. It would be especially effective here because most of the Greek houses are in the historical "Mansion Hill" district, and so many of them have such fantastic histories. The Tri Delta house once belonged to a Wisconsin governor; the top floor used to be a ballroom and still retains its wood floors. Chi Phi used to be a church (yes, really).

And while I saw many of the sorority houses during rush, and many of the fraternity houses during parties -- well, the basements, anyway -- there have been plenty that I've never explored and would love to see (specifically Sigma Pi and Sigma Phi, which have great houses, but by the time they came back on campus and were housed, I was out of the fraternity party scene).
