Asking your friends is a good strategy -- when you have a lot of friends. I'm relatively new to this area, and I've only been enrolled since September. Erica can tell you that the life of a graduate student leaves very little time for socialization outside of class.
I've managed to get to know a small group of acquaintances on campus, but as I said before, most of them would probably turn their nose up at the idea of a sorority. My field of study is filled with lots of iconoclasts who take pride in being on the outside, and even though they're very gregarious and friendly, they just don't strike me as "joiners". I even had one woman tell me point blank that she's "not the sorority type", and I had another woman flat out ignore the question when I asked her in e-mail.
There are greeks on campus, but they seem to be a relatively low-key bunch. Or maybe because I'm a grad student, I just don't see them that often. I do know that you rarely if ever see people wearing their letters here.
So I'm going to be flying blind it seems like... just leaving brochures around and putting up flyers to see if anyone responds.
