Yes. To all of the above. The person (man or woman) is a paid employee, there to help with just these types of questions. Mostly s/he will probably take your name and forward it to any fraternities who ask for a list of interested guys. But s/he may also be able to provide some insight or support.

The role of the Greek Life office is to make sure these chapters run smoothly and above reproach. S/he is the grown up making sure the kids are playing by the rules. That's very simplistic because depending on the size of your school/Greek system each chapter can be the equivalent of a small business, or even a medium size business! But there needs to be a disinterested third party whose job it is to make sure everyone works with each other and with the school, and also as an intermediary between the outside world and the Greek members and their chapters. So s/he won't be able to HELP you get into a chapter but depending on how good s/he is, may be able to give you some tools to use.
