I realize at schools where the chapters have houses everybody calls the chapters "houses" instead, but it's a pet peeve of mind and it makes me nuts when I read it. Chapter, not House.
Ditto! I remember getting a list of correct Greek terms (recruitment vs. rush, new member vs. pledge, etc) and it included "chapter" vs. "house". This was at an officer training session (or something like it) that was combined with other Kappa chapters that DO have houses, so it didn't make sense to me at the time.
