Then perhaps the fraternity is CLOSED for the summer. Many of the ones at my alma mater are, and so are the sororities (and no we don't have a little old lady or alum answering the door - if it's open, a regular old sister would answer it).

I just cannot get over this - maybe it's something people do in California (we sure as hell don't do it here) but this is just unspeakably rude. These are people's HOMES, not business establishments. I doubt you would be very happy with someone entering your home, door open or not, to check on its condition. I've been past lots of the fraternity/sorority houses at nearby colleges, but I certainly would not be so bold as to just walk in, any more than I would just walk in a random person's dorm room or apartment.
