My University's Greek GPA is also higher than the non-greek GPA. Fraternities are a little different, but I know with our sorority we have to maintain a certain GPA. As a new member (pledge) they have to achieve a certain GPA as well...just to initiate.
To be honestly blunt...College (as you know) is a lot different than high school. The classes sometimes don't have mandatory attendance and I think that's what kills a lot of student's GPA's. Personally I've found that being Greek has kept me apt to NOT skipping class (for fear of a sister telling on me LOL) and to keep up my GPA and not let down my chapter.
I hope that helps. I strongly urge you to consult the Organization he's interested in for further questions. Talk to the advisors and maybe even the GREEK Advisor of that campus for his/her opinions.
Good Luck and keep us posted!
