It's not about where you're from. I've heard "Nationals" north and south, east and west from the newest neophyte to chapter officers. It still does not make it right. However, we only have one national headquarters. As that is a singular entity, nationals is incorrect.
When referring to attending the national convention, just say you're going to convention. Just like we shouldn't say that we are attending regionals even if you are going to attend the regional conference for Mighty Midwest and Sensational South Atlantic. You can just say you are going to the conference.
If you say "nationals" to the wrong Soror, you might get your feelings hurt.
Knowledge is power. Now it's time to put it to use.
