Why are we considered "social" fraternities?

I am looking to start some conversations about the nature of NPC, IFC, NPHC and MGC fraternities and sororities being considered "social" organizations.

Many of us have generalized greek-letter organizations into "academic" "service" or "social" but has the latter given us a bad rap as to our nature? Yes we're social, but what about the leadership, service and academic components of our organizations? How can we develop a term that embodies all of these areas and more?

What campuses and organizations have given up on "social" and considered new terms such as "comprehensive" or "leadership?"

I'm open to any and all ideas and look forward to the conversation.
