When I was looking for my first job out of college, I listed my sorority with my other activities. I mentioned the highest offices I had held, but didn't go on and on about socials etc. I think it took up all of 2 lines.

My current resume does not mention my sorority. I had to prioritize what went on that one page, and I felt it was more important to flesh out my job experience.

Mentioning a GLO can backfire... suppose the recruiter went to a school where your GLO was represented, and either (a) the chapter had a bad reputation, or (b) the recruiter wanted to join that GLO and didn't get in and is bitter... just a thought.
