I've heard about schools where the houses are battered and beaten-up.
But even when they're not officially open to the public, many of the bigger houses at Penn State are well-maintained. I was a little sister at TKE, and in and out of the house all the time for meals and meetings, and it was generally clean.
Sigma Pi, SAE and Beta are downright gorgeous, and the houses for Skull, Sigma Chi, Chi Phi, Pi Kapp, and a few others are pretty spiffy as well. Some of the others are less stellar, but what do you expect with 50 some chapters?
A lot of the houses do the rack room thing, so without the need for beds, the brothers' upstairs rooms are amazing - guys over the years have installed bars, aquariums, bookshelves, comfy seating, etc. By the time I was a senior, I would go over to the TKE house on a Saturday, have dinner and watch a movie in someone's room on a big-screen TV (complete with snacks and mixed drinks from a small bar), and then leave before the guys went downstairs to hit on the freshmen. A nice respite from the tiny, cinderblock dormrooms we sororities had to deal with.
