I think the sorority/fraternity thing is unique to the US; at least, I've never heard of them up here. Of course, I never went to college either so it's possible that we have them and I just don't know about it.
In any case, shallow, petty and ignorant people are always going to be a part of life. Branding them with greek letters seems like a good idea to me, as it'll make them easier to avoid.
