What makes Greek life "hot" in the south?

LadyLonghorn is right about introductions and people knowing your greek affiliation. I find it kind of funny to be at an event and have somebody say, "This is @, she's a pi phi." I'm 44 years old!!! I know I'm still a pi phi, but, I'm also a wife, a mom, a business woman, etc.

I did move back, and am raising my family, in the same neighborhood where I grew up though, so everybody knows everybody's business. I guess greek affiliation is just one way to differentiate us from each other.

What types of events are these and are these people who only know you within an organizational or college-educated context?

That makes a lot of difference.
