Yeah, W&L is the only time I've ever heard of Pi Kappa Phi being called "Pi Phi" for the obvious reason of confusion with Pi Beta Phi, which goes by "Pi Phi" nationally.

I'm actually really curious to see if this has happened anywhere else on other campuses.

Honestly, it always sort of annoyed me (as a Pi BETA Phi) that they used that nickname, but it wasn't exactly their fault since everyone on campus used that name and called them that, and had apparently done so for years. And we couldn't exactly just go around telling everyone not to call them that either, without looking petty/uptight.
