It couldn't hurt to tell them your opinion. I'd start the letter out, "A recent study by the University of Missouri found that Greeks throughout the US and Canada are more involved on their campuses and rate their overall university experience better. The same Missouri study found Greeks are more financially successful after they graduate than independents; are more involved in their communities, and
give more generously to their alma maters."
In that same paragraph, I think I'd emphasize how making the entire Greek system at Iowa suffer for one ALLEGED hazing incident seems a little extreme to you, an Iowa graduate and proud Greek alumna. Point out that there are many charities in the country who need contributions, and if Iowa doesn't value its Greek alumni members' opinions, then perhaps it doesn't value your money either.
Money talks sometimes when nothing else does.
