Your observation seems pretty valid to me although I bet some houses at Vandy are still pretty elite/ist. (It's weird that I never thought of it as being a north/south thing.The states do seem like of different "culturally," but Memphis really throws things off for me, and the Greek system at Arkansas, especially for sororities seems pretty intense.)

I think the OP is probably rightly concerned since he's kind of limiting himself to certain chapters right off the bat. If you have your mind set only on certain chapters, then I think you always have to know people already or make contacts pre-rush.
I wasn't necessarily limiting myself to only the certain chapters I had previously stated in my original post. I had only brought those certain fraternities into discussion due to meeting actives of those fraternities before (not necessarily from where I'm planning on attending) and thinking that I'd be a good fit (assuming the fraternities are similar to where I visited). Sorry about the confusion.
Also, I understand that assuming anything is probably not necessarily the best idea possible, but I do believe it's better to have some type of direction rather than going into rush with no idea. As I said though, I'm not just limiting myself to the select few I had brought up.

Also I think the only school two schools that have any significant differences compared to the rest would be Kentucky and Vanderbilt.
Kentucky is simply due to the fact that of it's location. Vanderbilt is more diverse due to it's academics and it's elite selectivity in it's admissions process.
