But why in the world would you join an organization where you didn't like the girls and didn't want to be around them? You're saying she can join but then not hang out with them... So what's the point of joining? Obviously you don't have to spend every waking moment with them but I'd hope you would at least enjoy being around them! It seems like her joining this group would just be asking for drama.

Umm, there are other girls older than her in the sorority. There will be other girls who join after her who will be younger. Perhaps she can actually talk to them and hang out with them!!
As for my example, my pledge class consisted of 5 girls. I found many other people among the remaining 40 sisters to hang out with. I was super close with some of the girls in my (college) class, not at all with others.
And like I said...there are going to be sisters in EVERY sorority you don't like and don't want to hang out with. Unless the sorority has 5 girls in it. If you say there isn't anyone in your chapter you don't like, you're either Pollyanna or lying through your teeth.
Plus, there's a BIG difference between the OP's original "I don't like this group because my roomie is in it and I don't like her" and the updated "there's all sorts of gnarly stuff I can't go into and I was treated badly during rush and there was an incident with my roommate." #1 I'd say you're being silly to reject the group because of one girl and because the group is new and doesn't know how to rush. #2 maybe you have a valid point.
Oh and one chapter's total would not be increased without the others increasing - she may have meant they have more open spots due to graduations or disaffiliations.
