My dad also thinks it's going to distract from my grades freshman year, and he also thinks that sororities are only 'social clubs'  so let's see how it goes I'll try bringing it up again before move-in - I already signed up and paid the fee.

Well, they are social, but all of the sororities have required minimum GPAs and study hours as well as have philanthropy events throughout the year. My experience is that the studious people stay studious and the people who party a lot, are going to party anyway. You'll find support for either in a sorority.
NPHC is a totally different experience that I can't speak to, but I think you're the best judge of that for you.
