Interesting. Not saying you never read these things- just asking the question since I had not seen them before.
I can see how a publication aimed at the general public might try to create this association- not necessarily out of malice mind you- to give a bit of glamour to a story, but it is not quite the right way to look at it I think.
Texas, like many competitive southern state schools with a large number of legacies in GLOs and heavy attendance by state residents, has a Greek community heavily populated by members who are local (as in from Texas) and may have many local activities in common.
In this sense, going to a UT camp is the same as going to a certain high school or belonging to a certain country club when it comes to Greek membership.
Yes, one could look at the numbers and interpret some kind of direct correlation, but it is- in my opinion anyway- just further evidence of a social progression that exists in any situation where you have a relatively limited number of people spending much of their lives in a relatively limited geographic area.
