Yale recognizes greek life, the Kappa chapter is registered with the Dean of Students. I think they have houses there too.

MIT recognizes greek life, there are 5 sororities with about 100 members each, and lots of frats. I met a AXO from MIT, and she told me some of the chapters have pretty brownstone houses.

As for Harvard, here's what I found on the website: "From time to time, undergraduates raise questions about their membership in non-Harvard organizations. It is important that students make well-informed decisions when considering membership in these organizations. In the case of some fraternities and sororities, students run a substantial risk of excessive time commitments, and academic work has been known to suffer. While fraternities and sororities may be recognized officially at other universities and in local towns, they are not permitted to conduct any activity at Harvard even though their activities involve Harvard undergraduates. This policy also applies to the " final clubs" in Cambridge."
So, while there are chapters, you are right, the University does not recognize them. Although god knows why they can have a University recognized Poker Club, but they can't have Kappa Alpha Theta. It is the same way at Princeton.
