There are over 3,000 colleges and universities and only 8 are Ivy Leagues. If you limit expansion of your GLO to these and the other top 5% or 10% most selective schools, you're limiting yourself to a handful of schools, many of which are overtly hostile to greeks.
There are schools that have had fraternities and sororities for over 125 years. There are schools that are looking to go greek now for the first time. I think having a chapter at a school with a strong greek tradition and history is a great thing. These chapters can be examples to the newer colonies and chapters much like older sisters and brothers can be role models for the new members.
I'm afraid that the question that is raised might contribute to the reputation of elitism of the greek community as seen by non-greeks at the lesser known schools who are potentially good members. Of course, the anti-greeks need little to consider us 'elite' in the derrogatory sense of the word.
