Well, the "traditional" greek system is generally viewed as the members of the North-American Interfraternity Council and the National Panhellenic Council. (The "white" fraternities and sororities). Of the members of the NPC, none were founded after 1917. The average date of founding appears to be about 1890. See http://web.library.uiuc.edu/ahx/npc/ for more info. The years on the Fraternities stretch back farther. In both cases, most of the groups which started in the 20th century which have joined the two councils are the ones started by Jewish Students who could not be admitted to other greeks.

I guess I just don't like it and I'll have to deal with it. By the way,
National Panhellenic Conference (26 Women's Fraternities/Sororities)
Over half of them were founded after 1908 (that's after TWO of the NPHC orgs were founded)
Zeta Tau Alpha - 1909
Alpha Gamma Delta - 1909
Alpha Delta Pi - 1909
Delta Zeta - 1910
Phi Mu - 1911
Kappa Delta - 1912
Sigma Sigma Sigma - 1951
Alpha Sigma Tau - 1951
Alpha Sigma Alpha - 1951
Alpha Epsilon Phi - 1951
Theta Phi Alpha - 1951
Phi Sigma Sigma - 1951
Delta Phi Epsilon - 1951
Sigma Delta Tau - 1951
Fraternity info is harder to come by and more complicated!
