I've wondered about that, too. A couple of years ago, a mom told me that she was asking her daughter to go through recruitment because she had heard being in a sorority would be a good foot in the door for getting a job after graduation. The mom was essentially willing to foot the bill for God-knows-how-much in total sorority dues and fees over 4 years for a little feeling of security in the unstable job market. [Her daughter had no interest in Greek life and dropped after round 1.]
