Campuses (and chapters) may be classified as "commuter" simply because a large percentage of students live at home with parents or the percentage of undergraduates living in university housing is low even if it a large university.

I lived at home as an undergrad as did 90% of the chapter. That same chapter now has an on-campus house and the university has built dorm space sufficient that they are more residential. I still see a huge difference in the chapter traditions in that chapter vs. chapters who have always been housed. It isn't that one is better than another, they are just different (things like how meals are served, how members feel about living in). Expectations of chapters at commuter campuses do not differ but suggestions on how they fulfill those requirements will differ. For example, requiring proctored study hours is a whole lot easier when you have a house.
