Any Christian that is serious about turning ideas into action should at least be open to the idea of going Greek - while not everyone will share your ideas and attitudes about morality, the philanthropies, the charity work, and the acts associated with being a true brother are the most "Christ-like" activities you'll find in any collegiate organization. And yeah, at least on my campus that includes ones with overtly religious themes.

What if you have a prospective member who isn't Christian? Is he welcomed as well?

You can espouse "Christian ideals" without being a professed Christian (the same as you can shout about how much of a Christian you are and really not follow Christian ideals).
