I think your goals are nobel and valid... but do other chapter members share these same goals? If you are in the extreme minority, it may not be worth it.

I think you're in for a lot of hard work that may not pay off. You'll get heavily involved in trying to change the sorority's local culture, an uphill battle that will probably involve taking on a major exec board role, alienating some members, losing sleep and worst of all -- missing out on the fun of college or losing sight of your academic goals to miss that internship opportunity, slack on grades or fail to turn something around that will become a positive in your life.

If it is worth sacrificing 3 years of your time and life, just in time to graduate and see the work partially done, then go for it. I don't know your specific situation or the other chapter members.

Otherwise, you can do one of two things-- be the cute girl in XYZ letters or cancel your membership. Few sororities are compelled to offer early alum status just because you don't like your chapter.
