So I can only speak for my own Sorority and in general because most Greek-Lettered Organizations hold their meetings in private with some ritual involved.

We have general body meetings for ONLY members. We have events for the public. These events are social parties, "step shows", and community service activities. Sometimes these events turn into all 3. There are others that we have.

However, meetings and initiations are extremely private. Everyone does their own "activity" in regards to that. Without getting into rituals, at the end of the initiation of new members, we might have a "high tea", with or without family members.
