I don't see any problem with researching and asking questions about Greek Life as part of the college research and application process. While academics are important, so much of what you'll take out of your college experience is what happens outside of the classroom. Why would he apply to a school that won't offer the extra-curricular life that he wants?
Frankly, any of the large flagship public schools in the South will have great to decent departments across the board. Some programs, like Auburn's engineering or Alabama's journalism, really stand out as being exceptional. FSU is known for its music and drama departments, but that doesn't mean you're not going to get a good education if you're a math major. The South has put its money where its mouth is in terms of the quality of the education you'll get from a public college.
If you know you want to be a traditionally Southern Greek school, there's nothing wrong with that being part of your research.
