Actually, some GLOs are corporations and some are not. If I'm not mistaken, Kappa Sigma Fraternity is an unincorporated association. Kappa Sigma Fraternity, Inc. (aka Kappa Sigma Memorial Foundation), was a corporation formed by Kappa Sigma Fraternity to hold title to Memorial Headquarters in Charlottesville. I wouldn't be surprised if there are other GLOs that are set up similarly -- as associations that have in turn formed corporations to hold certain property.

You can find some interesting KS history in the opinion in Kappa Sigma Fraternity, Inc., v. Kappa Sigma Fraternity.
