Maybe each campus has their own?

I never heard of Choppers until this site!

But to use names to belittle others is crass!

I thought We were Fellow Greeks not ass wipes?

Unfortunately, rather mean-spirited nicknames

A number of GLOs on my college campus had rather crude nicknames. This is perhaps the least crude, because the members themselves used it:

Alpha Phi Delta: Alphi Phi Dago

On my college campus, most of the fraternities had their origins along ethnic lines.

Another semi-crude nickname that I have heard is ZBT from the University of Texas Austin : Zillionaires, Billionaires and Trillionaires

I so thought this thread was going to be about funny nicknames and the not-so funny ones. Like "Kappa Drama" for Kappa Delta or something.

the local DU Alumni Association dropped off fliers to all the Greeks this year going over their new house rules (4 million dollar renovations = strict rules) and part of the letter went on about how it's pronounced "YUPE-SILON" not "OOPS" or "UPS". Touchy touchy ;-)

when you get it ALL the time we do tend to be a bit touchy on that one.
