If I want to join the Hillel on my college campus (an organization for Jewish students and faculty), is it a requirement that I be ethnically or religiously Jewish?

I worked at the JCC and I live in a largely populated Jewish community.  I am simply interested in joining to learn more....
Is that acceptable or strange to Jewish students in the organization?

I doubt it.  Most religious organizations jump at the chance of converting an outsider, whether it's your intention to convert or not...

I don't think so.

I know at least at Chapman, non-Jews are allowed to go to Hillel events. Whether or not they can be actual members, I don't know.

Ask the college you're going to and find out.
