I agree with what most have said, however I disagree with Dionysus. I'm about the same age as you and serve as an advisor for a chapter and I don't feel at all like it's babysitting. It's definitely more than just being friends though, since you're offering guidance and support, but I certainly don't feel like a babysitter. I will say I'm not Chapter Advisor, which I think is more responsibility than some of the other advisors, but being an advisor can be a great way to bond with chapter members.

However, since it sounds like you're really just looking for more social interaction with chapter members while on campus, then I would not suggest becoming an advisor. Your best bet is probably joining an active alum association and from there participating in events where you meet both collegians and alums. Hopefully after meeting people you'll be able to find collegians to hang out with around campus.
