As long as you aren't using anything that is DZ's I wouldn't consider that being underground. The school could approve you as a local sorority and recognize you, in which case you'd be a local sorority. Or they could refuse to recognize you, in which case you'd just be unrecognized which isn't the same as being underground.
As to whether you have to surrender your DZ membership, it depends whether DZ has a clause that says members cannot belong to a local social sorority.
