The internet wasn't popular yet when I was in school and organizations didn't have websites so the way I learned about greek life was by observing the members on my college campus and attending their events.

Today there are just so many resources out there that there really is no excuse for being lazy and not doing the research that people should be happy to do if they are truly interested. In addition to the internet, there are even books available that were not available years ago.

If you are especially interested in the NPHC orgs, I suggest reading "The Divine Nine" by Lawrence C. Ross Jr. for an introduction to each NPHC organization and more importantly "African American Fraternities and Sororities: The Legacy and the Vision" by Tamara L. Brown (and others). This book provides in depth insight into the world of BGLO's and provides great historical references regarding all GLO's in America. Both books can be purchased at amazon.com.
