Is it still possible to be involved with Greek life or is it pretty much, no chapter, no go?

As someone who dearly loves Greek Life and her sorority, I gotta tell you that hanging out/partying with the undergrad chapter at your university (note I'm not talking about volunteering) is considered pretty lame among grad students. And likely by undergrads too.
I don't know what you'll be doing for grad school. If it's business/law that's one thing. But M.A./M.S./Ph.D. students are going to probably view GLOs as really lame in general. If you want to make good friends in grad school don't be all "OMG frat life" all the time.
I think the situation is probably a bit different for NPHC orgs.
Join your alum club. You're a big kid now.
Also: it's beyond ridiculous to consider whether or not your undergrad chapter is there as a factor for choosing a grad school. Period. In case you were saying that.
