Seton Following a long and colourful history of this wonderful edifice, occupied by only the champions of Leeds university. Following a land-slide victory, the house was voted in the 1678 elections of Bodington to be the undisputed champion of houses, and has held the title every since. The 1678 elections followed a long and illustrious campaign, whereby the indingous population of Seton fought off many armies of lesser houses, naturally with much success. There is no doubt that Milton wrote his epic Paradise Lost with Seton in mind. It is said, following much speculaton by many literary and religous figures that the Holy Grail lies within, and is guarded by the decendents of christ.
Chris Stevenson The current president of Seton is Chris Stevenson. Stevenson said in his inauguration speech "It is an honour to become president of what is the best house in Bodington. Being gay it is important to stand and fight those against us. These are troubling times in which it is not safe anymore to walk the streets of Leeds without food or water, similar to the genocide in Rwanda. I believe it was Adolf Hitler who once said "I have a dream" and by the grace of God he achieved this dream. I would also like to announce at this time that from now on Primrose Shipman is an honery nun of the university. May Rev. Harold Shipman rest in peace." Stevenson will be campaigning for anti-semetic rights in late November 2006. In October 2006 Stevenson was accused of performing a Nazi solute to a collegue. These claims were quickly quashed with statesman Stevenson saying "You'll Never Walk Alone" in tribute to the late Bob Monkhouse.

Bodington Newsletter Bodington publishes its own internal newsletter which contains information about events and notices for students. This was stopped in late 2006 by evil dictator Chris Stevenson in an attempt to prevent free speech. Stevenson justified his actions by saying "This is my body take it and eat it" in reference to Sir Steve Redgrave's 5 gold medals. Matthew Pinsent however was not mentioned.
