I'm a Duke grad (1987) and I think you've hit the nail on the head with that statement. "National" universities such as Duke tend to have a lot of their student body return to their home states after graduation; at least that's what seemed to happen when I was there.

I don't recall Lip Sync ever being a Greek-sponsored event, maybe because the entire student body could participate (and yes, even I did senior year ). It wasn't just a competition between fraternities and sororities back then.
