No, but for different reasons.
Some people are just, and this sounds judgmental, not good enough for Greek life. I mean, would you (no matter what kind of Greek you are) want someone who sells crack or prostitutes him/herself as a brother or sister? Even most academic honoraries have a statement about "good character" as a membership requirement.
Other people simply aren't interested. If you're satisfied to have only one or two friends and not be involved in any activities, you will never find a GLO that lets you be that uninvolved. It doesn't mean a GLO wouldn't be willing to have you, though.
I think there are lots of people who could be Greek of some stripe but think, "Ew, Greek," or are at a school where Greek life isn't really an option. Those are the people who could be Greek but aren't. That doesn't necessarily mean, however, that they realize what they're missing. That's what we as Greeks need to do to keep GLOs alive - show them what they're missing. And then make sure the options for joining are there, or that your system is ready to expand.
