because some of those schools definitely don't have the other things that you think of when you say "Ivy League."

For some of them, yeah it's just academic quality. But most of them have very competitive admissions, competitive academics, and a large percentage of students continuing on to graduate schools. There are a few that I question as "New Ivies" but many of the ones on the list really are that good. Also, their names look pretty good to grad schools admissions officers.
Greek life probably varies quite a bit from school to school...I guess that's all I know about this though.
