I rushed with another Indian girl from my high school, and I met 4 or 5 other Indian girls who were also rushing. NONE of us got into ANY sorority. They do not let you in if you're Indian. Alright, let's be fair, I did see one Indian girl in a sorority when I was rushing, but she was in one that wasn't very good.
As far as the Indian sororities are concerned, I honestly don't know much about them that isn't hearsay, so I won't say anything about them here.
Am I glad I rushed? Sure, it was still a good experience, and I did get to meet a lot of new people that way, even though there was clearly something fishy going on there. Would I recommend that you rush? If you want to, go for it. Just be aware that there's a good chance you won't get in because you're Indian.

You were present for membership selection of EVERY sorority at UT?
