At Otterbein, the majority of students in leadership positions, at least while I was there, were Greek. I think its the nature of the groups...being local, you've got a heck of a lot of work to do to keep things running smoothly, so they attract self-starters and multi-taskers. I know our newspaper editorial staff was, at one point and time, almost 90% Greek (yeah, writing articles about Greek life was rough!), the Trustees and Senators were often Greek as well.
But the thing is, that it wasn't just Greek life. OC seems to have this thing with people who multi-task like no tomorrow. They're in Greek life and Res life and Religious life and x, y, and zed. I don't necessarily think that Greek Life is the key to their involvement, but it is complementary as it gives you an understanding of the ins and outs of college policy and administration, which can be useful in other student organizations.
(Readers Digest version: Otterbein students are overachieving nutters who love their school and their organizations...and that's the way we like it!
