The gold seats, from about the 20 yard line to the 5 yard line are fraternity/sorority seats. Those seats just to the right of them, the empty section, looked roped off, but it has to be more organizational student seats, right?

That's not completely accurate. The gold seats from the 20 to the 5 and up about 20 rows are the paid greek seats. Above that is ordinary sideline seats. The empty section next to the gold seats at the top is professional school students, i.e., law school, nursing school, med school etc.. Below those seats are the general admission greek seats. Some of the greeks overflow into the professional student section above. The section with students from the professional schools are never going to be filled because, a) it's roped off and some of those student go sit in other sections, but it is difficult for general students to get in to that section, and b) you are never going to have all of those students show up when most of them live in New Orleans.
