I would then venture a guess that you never visited Michigan State. (BTW - the KD house there is gorgeous!) Or Bowling Green State University either. I attended one and am an advisor at the other, and the terms are both freely embraced by the non-Greek populations.

(Though I'm a little uncertain how as a chapter visitor, you might interact sufficiently enough with large groups of non-Green students to determine that they don't use/embrace the term GDI. Most of the chapter visitors I have encountered primarily have contact with other Greeks. Of course, it may depend upon the context of your visit to that campus.)
