No they don't.

They need girls like her to leave ASAP, unless they are into sadomasochism.

This girl had a YEAR to see how her campus Greek system works, get to know sorority members, evaluate what she wants out of a group. It's not like she was some babe in the woods freshman who came to UT from the middle of nowhere and never saw the sororities before rush.

And if she says that she really didn't know the sororities' reputations - doesn't that kind of negate what she said about being known around campus as the "losers" WHEN SHE, A PERSON INTERESTED IN GREEK LIFE, DIDN'T KNOW HERSELF? Although it seems like the only people on campus she is really interested in the opinion of are the fraternities who won't mix with them.

Plus, I'm guessing the reason she only felt friendship with those who depledged is because they were the ones who confirmed her negative image of the sorority.

James is absolutely right - she's like the girl who keeps going out with a guy she doesn't really like just because she wants to go out with someone, and while she feels nothing, meanwhile the poor guy is falling head over heels. We'd tell someone in that situation to cut the guy loose, and the same advice applies here.
