I'm not about to do that math here, but I think we'd find that the number of collegians does not follow the population distribution of the country. The Northeast has a gigantic population but practically no sorority collegians per capita compared to a small but heavily Greek state like Mississippi. So since sororities in general are skewed to the south...you'd expect that most truly nationwide sororities would reflect that imbalance numerically. In other words, they would look heavily southern, when in fact it's the sorority system that's heavily southern, and they're just reflecting that.
I guess my point is that I think Texas_Gal has an excellent point that Southern is a state of mind, and can't be measured with numbers.

Do you mean that there are more sororities in the South than anywhere else?
I'm interested in seeing the numbers and statistics. New York State has over 50 colleges many of which have sororities. The chapters don't have the 150 + sisters per chapter that many big greek schools have, but they still do pretty well.
