That being said, since you are asking for advice, I would suggest that you stop thinking or referring to women in sororities as "the enemy". Simply because you don't share a lot of similar interests does not make someone an enemy. If you truly are interested in meeting different types of people, you need to open your mind up and throw all judgments out the window. You may actually learn that you do share common interests or beliefs.
If you want people to accept who YOU are, you need to accept who they are. If you can do that, then I think you should go for it. Just remember that people may need some time to get to know you, and that might take a bit longer since you don't usually associate with Greek members. I would be open with them as to what in Greek life actually interests you.

Agreed. Also, I hope that you arent interested in Greek life only because of the image that they portray. Im not Greek but I am involved in organizations at my campus and something I notice with many people who join organizations Greek or otherwise is that they see the nice clothes, the "fame" and respect they recieve and want to be a part of that. They dont want to join because of the orgs. principles, mission, purpose, and they overlook the hard work and service and RESPOSIBILITIES these groups have. My best advice would be to first do a little soul searching and then if Greek membership is what you truly desire do your research and see which one is truly for you.
