Is IFC the answer?

If there was an organization that only certain members could be in that discussed issues openly without anyone getting upset, then things might change.
For instance, you could go and say, "The Delts have been really arrogant lately and you guys need to start shaping up, you are making us all look bad." The Delts would take this into consideration and try to change. No hard feelings or anything. It seems like a lot of chapters have hard feelings toward another group but don't try to rectify it and just let it fester new member class after another. We didn't like the Pikes when I was in school, I went back recently, and they still don't like the Pikes. Everyone needs to get over it. And only then will we be a community that really accomplishes our goals.

There is no student on your campus who can go to the Delts and say something which will "shape them up."

There is nothing that will make your guys like the Pikes.

Especially someone from the IFC.

Perhaps some friendly competition (like poker/hearts/euchre, not tackle football) would produce more interaction and respect.

Knowledge will help heal rifts and disputes. Get to know them. Invite 10 of them to eat at your house.

At the Olympics, fierce competitors live together peacefully, but at the UN the talkers can't stand each other. Hopefully your IFC can avoid the UN complex.
