School/Team nick names
What were/are you fav nick names for school teams.
Or for that matter, your chapter ( be somewhat clean here )
Schools:Loggers, and since small school also follow the big school up north-The Huskies.
As for house, clean would be The Slug Barn. One would have to have seen the house.

With no disrespect intended, I've always been amazed by the Delaware Fighting Blue Hens and The Oregon Ducks.
Closer to home, in the high school ranks, there are the Wheatridge Farmers and the Ft. Collins Lambkins.

I've always been partial to the UC Santa Barbara Banana Slugs.
This isn't a nickname but the initials "IUPUI" are famous in the college basketball ranks.

As a native Delawarian I've always been slightly embarassed by a big blue chicken running around at sporting events. But appreantly Yoo Dee (said chickens name) is quite popular and has been a sucessful mascot! But it could always be worse......
I think these are correct for these schools:
Sweetbriar College: the Vixens
Meredith College: the Angels
Campbell University: the Camels

My high school was the Cotter Warriors, but my boyfriend and I decided "Cotter Criminals" would have been better, since we went through our yearbooks and an unusually high percentage of our schoolmates have been to jail. And my high school had a reputation for being the poor, but tough, kids from the wrong side of the tracks.
My college's mascot is the Scots (for guys) and Pipers (for girls). Yes, like Scottish men and bagpipers. We also have the Annual Arkansas Scottish Festival. Let's just say it's a good thing I like bagpipes...
We used to be the Arkansas College Lambs though, according to lore, so I think Angus McFierce, the Scot, is a much scarier mascot, at least by comparison!

My high school team: the Trojans
My high school mascot: Trojan Man
I won't tell you what the opposing team used to throw out onto the field when our football team came parading out...
