While I agree that there are a lot of strong greek systems steeped in tradition and with high quotas in the south I don't think you can so easily dismiss the rest of the country.
The question is how do you define strong? Look at Indiana, Penn State & Miami, all with many groups represented on campus. If you define strong by historical GLO presence you can also look at DePauw, Northwestern, Syracuse and many others which are not southern.
I can think of a lot of other ways to define strong too (this assumes we are stepping outside the recruitment arena)... number of alumnae who hold public office or are prominent members of their communities; number of alumnae who pay alumnae dues, volunteer or donate to the organization or its foundation; percentage of the student body that is greek; or number of community service hours or amount of money raised for philanthropic causes.
