From my school's Greek Life facebook page, this is what they posted for Preference Round 'What to Wear', with the caption of "semi-formal attire is generally appropriate. Women tend to wear semi-formal dresses and skirts, similar to what one might wear to a wedding or reception."

I am considering this dress. Is the dress/ any tea length too conservative? Would it be prudent to have a cardigan as well?

That yellow dress would look a million times better with nude shoes...not black. The dress you've picked is IMO cuter than theirs...and better safe than sorry. I think it's extremely cute and if you are afraid of looking bland get some kickass shoes. (And skip the cardigan.)
Assuming you're buying it in black...
Escher
In the red, nude, or black croc.
Jesenia
This would look pretty awesome with the black dress in the red they offer.
Masquerade
In the "pink multi"...my personal favorite, but not everyone's cup of tea I'm sure.
BooBoo
In nude...very classy.

Or if you want to stick with all black:
Baby
Kirsi

If you go with a flashy shoe pick some understated earrings (small pearls, small diamonds, etc.) and if you go with black you have leeway to pick some that have some color or flash (like these or these, maybe).

And for my favorite source for cheap accessories and shoes...
Versie
Isabella
Black Peep Toe
Velisha

And earrings for black shoes:
These or these

Sorry for the essay...just having fun doing this!
