The two that matter to me are...
Most Gentlemanly: Without question, FKT. To paraphrase another poster, I could be a total stranger to all of them and walk into their house completely drunk, begin stripping and demanding sex, and they would take me to a quiet room, cover me with a blanket, and make sure I was okay and nobody bothered me. These guys always walk girls home, not 'cuz we need it but 'cuz we always come over to see them and it's polite. They're polite and respectful to everyone.
Most Fun: Again I'd have to say FKT, but I'm definitely biased because all of my friends are in that house. However, I can say without prejudice that they do have the best parties. Also, there's always somebody there who'll talk to you, even if they don't really know you. I'd guess that BQP is a close second, just 'cuz there's always somebody you know and/or something going on in that house.
And now the other stats...
Most Attractive: All 5 fraternities have a broad range of appearances. I can't really rank them on that basis.
Most Athletic: Generally speaking, DTD is hockey players, FDQ is wrestling/football, and FKT and BQP split the rest of the athletes.
Most Poorly Behaved: DTD, and not just the cute-little-fraternity-prank or petty-alcohol/drug-violation kind of trouble, either. We're talking the big-fire-in-the-house, large-scale-illegal-stuff and guys-the-RAs-warn-freshman-girls-about kind of trouble. Not to say that individually they aren't nice guys or that they're all bad. I'm friends with quite a few of them. But on the whole, well... I'm going to be a senior, and this particular organization has been on campus probation for all but 8 weeks of my time as a student there (and no, I'm not a transfer). Several of the biggest troublemakers here have graduated, so hopefully that will change for this coming year.
Best Behaved: FKT... only ones who haven't had even a minor house fire in the past 20 years, and nobody remembers the last time they were on campus probation.
Best Grades: I think that BQP won the Fraternity Cup this year and last year, but they're also the biggest, so they have the most to work with. I know I can always find help with my homework in any house.
Most Influential: With the administration, it's probably FKT, but with the students I'd say it's BQP. Again, they're the biggest, so they have the largest circulation in the student body.
In case you couldn't tell, my favorites are definitely the Gentlemen of FKT. See the top two categories for the reasons why. I love my Phi Tau boys!

Katey I'm gonna have to disagree with you some here...
*Hottest guys: Sig Ep and Sig Nu
*Most gentlemanly and nicest: Delts and Sig Eps
*Most fun to party with: Delts, Arm of Honor, and Kappa Phi Alpha (a local)
*Most athletic: Sig Ep or Tekes
*Most well behaved: Sig Ep or Delts
*Most likely to get in trouble: Arms (are they local?? I have no idea where they came from)
*Best Grades: I don't know...delts?
*Best House: I really like the Lambda Chi house...it just feels kinda homey whenever I go over there
*Best overall: I love my Delt boys and my Lambda Chis best, so I guess I'm kinda biased.

At Akron U:
*Hottest guys: FIJI, TKE
*Most gentlemanly and nicest: FIJI, Theta Chi
*Most fun to party with: TKE, Lambda Chi
*Most athletic: TKE, Lambda Chi, FIJI, Sigma Nu.....they all rank up there. Every sport is won by one of these fraternities....TKE = Flag Football, Lambda Chi = Softball, Tug-O-War (Greek Week), FIJI = Basketball, Sigma Nu = Volleyball, plus half of their brothers are cheerleaders.
*Most well behaved: ummm.....well.....its hard to say considering they all do something or other to get themselves in trouble
*Most likely to get in trouble: TKE (cause they love to be defiant), Lambda Chi (cause they love to follow in TKEs footsteps...) FIR HILL PRIDE!!!
*Best Grades: FIJI and Phi Delta Theta
*Best House: Phi Delta Theta....cause they have tons of rich alumni that don't have anything better to do with their money than to spend it on their house.....(however got to love one of their alumni cause he gives us money too!!! Yea for Paul Martin!!....his wife was a DG!)
*Best overall: FIJI, Lambda Chi. The men of Sigma Nu and Phi Sigma Kappa are sweethearts but they're also the quiet ones...don't stir up too much commotion on campus.

No problem with a little disagreement, that's what makes our chapter the best b/c we don't all love or hate the same houses. See I didn't pick Lambda Chi for anything b/c they are nice, but I just don't know them or get along with them half as well as my Sig Eps and Sig Nus and Phi Sig Kappa guys. I also have a big black spot for Arms. They have rubbed me the wrong way since freshman year, I think it's the old, fat, and bald thing
Arm of Honor is a local. Don't you remember that sign on their house "The oldest active local fraternity in the US" I think they tried to colonize @ UofM and a couple other campuses around and it didn't work, but that was a very long time ago.

UW Guys
At the University of Washington:
Hottest Guys: Pretty much every house has some really attractive guys--I am partial to Pi Kapps and DU's and Sig Eps
Most Gentlemanly: Pi Kapp
Most Fun to Party with: DU's and Pikes
Most Athletic: I see Betas working out really often at our IMA
Most well behaved: This is a tough question--I rarely hear about incidents at Kappa Sigs or Kappa Alpha Order (both very small chapters) or DU's or Pi Kapps
Most likely to get in trouble: Theta Chi (I think "Gamma Phi Up All Night" says it all) or Sigma Chi
Best Grades: AEPi
Best House: I really like Psi U's house--had a great late night house tour once
Best Overall: I'm going with DU's
and according to one of the girls in my house (my grandbig, in fact), Theta Xi is the house that is the most into extreme sports/random pranks--I heard that they have a guy who climbs walls and buildings for fun

Theta Xi
I always heard Theta Xi was great at University of Illinois. Old chapter; famous alumni; impressive house.

I like Theta Chi a lot. Our chapter is really close with them and everyone I have met has been cool. I know and like a couple of tke's too. Thats about all.

Hey, thanks Lioness -- I only wish they were the most gentlemanly also!
Looking forward to getting back to Athens for Homecoming in a couple of months.
