Ya hafta be very careful about coats-of-arms. If you really wanna be persnickety about it, unless it's been issued by Garter King of Arms (the agency in England that creates and issues coats-or arms) and inheritable (with proof) you're not entitled to bear them. It's like making the unfathomable social mistake of wearing a British school, university or military regiment tie when you're not entitled to wear it.
Likewise, fraternity and sorority coats of arms have specific symbolism that is known only to initiated members of the organization. In many cases, these coats of arms do not strictly follow heraldic design rules (metals shouldn't be next to metals, etc.)
The symbolism shown on the site are but generic descriptions.
