A commuter school (which I have (and really do) attended) is not an unaccredited school.

A commuter school is one where the majority of students live at home and "commute" to school, just like one commutes to work. Example: Only 41% of students live on/near campus at UW-Whitewater, an accredited 4 year school in the University of Wisconsin system. This school has Greek housing (including your own LXA, Tom, as well as TKE, DX, Pike, and several others) and is nothing like an unaccredited school whatsoever.

Many organizations have been very successful without being housed, and continue to be. A house is not a requirement to be a Greek organization in every situation. Sure, at Alabama or Wisconsin or Clemson you would need a house to be competitive, but at a smaller state or private school, they're unnecessary.
