Given, in the spring/summer its fine to wear lighter colors. But you should never prepare for a fraternity/sorority event thinking you're a model. Like Phigam said, every rush you'll see guys trying to get in wearing a tight hollister muscle shirt and dark jeans. They just look like clowns.

I think there's kind of an white, middle class or above, adult guy uniform in the south, especially if you are outside of big urban and suburban areas. Owning khaki pants, oxford cloth shirts, and a navy blue sport coat will allow you to dress appropriately for 90% of your life.
