Umm actually that is true. If you read the book of Legally Blond that the movie is based on, it is actually Delta Gamma in the book. EO would not let them use the name in the movie, so they changed it to Delta Nu, but it is based on Delta Gamma. They also did a lot of research with the Alpha Nu chapter of Delta Gamma (which you can see if you watch the special on Reese Witherspoon on E) so it is very probably that they got Delta Nu from combiding Alpha Nu with Delta Gamma. And that is their house in the movie. If you watch the beginning when they girl is riding the bike past the house and you see the Delta Nu letters on the house, you can actually see where the Gamma was behind it.

Here's the Zeta Beta Tau house at Georgia Tech. Built in 1949, slightly upgraded in 1994 (new windows, central air, enclosed porch turned into dining room). Sleeps 25 if I can recall.

I do like the fact that from the top, the Sigma Nu house has the outline of our badge.

but on the whole, a very ugly building.

Phi Mu house UH
this is the Phi Mu house at the University of Houston it's located in Greek Park which is sort of a community of town homes where all the GLO's have houses. It's in town home style and not nearly as lavish as the houses at other southern schools but I call it home. and hey, at least we have a house.

I likke the townhouse idea. Understated, but elegant.
