As for this particular situation, I don't know where this person is going to school... maybe I missed it. I'm just talking about my own experiences. I'd agree that recs certainly wouldn't hurt, but if she's going to my school (or probably many of the other state schools in Illinois) she shouldn't worry about them so much.

Illinois is quite different than anywhere else in the country. I doubt many sororities in IL would even know what to do with a rec if they got one. BUT - why take that chance? So what if it goes in the trash? Better to have gotten the rec, and not needed it, than to have not gotten it and needed it.
