As a (somewhat) recent grad I understand wanting to include as much as possible on your resume, especially since you may not have a lot to work with, but I would definitely leave this off (but do keep your GLO affiliation on there). Focus on your grades and LSAT instead.
Good luck!

I totally agree. You need to have some extracurriculars to show that you have good social skills and aren't a freak, but extracurriculars are the least important part of the application. It's mostly GPA + LSAT. You get more consideration for attending a good undergraduate program and for having a hard major.
If you have other extracurricular leadership positions, I would include those and leave this off.
I would include any philanthropy work you did with your sorority. I would just list the position as "volunteer" if you weren't a chair. The admissions committee is going to be more impressed by philanthropy work than social leadership positions in the sorority.
If you don't have any philanthropy or leadership, I would find some volunteer work to do.
