Groups can't come right out and say "we don't want Greeks", but in some campus orgs you will find a very strong anti-Greek element, and if it just "happens" that all their important stuff happens at the same time as important/mandatory Greek stuff, so sad too bad. It might not necessarily be because they think Greeks are evil, more that they don't want people dividing their time.

DISCLAIMER: I'm definitely not saying this is the way it is at every school, just saying (from seeing some friends go through it) that this might be part of the problem.
It's also worth pointing out that on some campuses chapters are hesitant to issue bids to PNMs who are involved in some activities because they know how much time it requires. Chapters want members who will be involved, not constantly turning in an excuse for missing meetings and such due to other obligations. Also, members with massive demands on their time can struggle with grades because there is simply not enough time left in their schedule to study.
