If your not at a target school, your odds are extremely low with that gpa, unless you have a contact at the senior ranks...even then it can be a long-shot.
If that 3.1 GPA is the result of being an engineering major at a school notorious for grade deflation, you're fine. Otherwise, I always tell people to aim for a 3.5 GPA (which appears to be the cutoff at most decent places)
When looking over a resume that has no listed GPA, I automatically assume it's not competitive (2.0 range). I suggest you list your gpa (it's good enough to compete for non-banking/consulting gigs) and try your best to emphasize leadership experience on your resume.
What year are you? If you're a junior, you'll have another semester to get your grades up and to get involved on-campus.
unfortunately, i don't really have much time to bring up my gpa. i'm a senior and will be graduating in may.
i struck out on on campus recruiting, so i'm trying to gauge where my options, if any, lie.
some firms are coming in the spring (small consulting firms, big 4 accounting structured finance groups, etc.) so i'm going to try for those, but i'm not too sure where else to look beyond monstertrak and doostang.

is it cumulative or major, if cum what is your major?
Cumulative GPA. major - econ
major gpa is slightly worse
Leave out both, but have a really good reason why its not at least a (3.5).
will probably go up to a 3.2 (i'm taking a January term class.
will i still get interviews without listing my gpa?
what school do you go to?
