hmmm
OK,
I will be the first to admit that I am a big girl and in a sorority at a very Greek school.
There are some factors that do affect this.
-I am a big Girl, but I am proportional (i.e. VERY curvy) with a defined jaw.
-The clothes I wear don't make bulges and keep clean lines (which is more than I can say for some "skinny" girls).
-Hyper active on campus(in a bunch of groups w/leadership).
The point is how you wear it!
Heck, I am usually the one getting in my guy friends at an *event* when I wear a low-cut shirt (brought to the front of the line).
If you saw me on campus, I would probably be wearing a polo w/dark jeans and heels.
Confidence in your own image of yourself makes all the difference in the world!
If the sister is fun and engaging (which is why she is probably your sister to begin with) than she should be talking to the girls.
As a note: If you are a bigger person, you need to wear the appropriate clothing. Spend the extra time looking for jeans that fit you (regardless of what brand name) and buy clothes with shape instead of just big.
I come from a family of bigger and *gifted* women and finding clothes that fit the top and bottom is hard, but it can be done! (I <3 stretch).
If the nationals wants to represent themselves with women who may not represent what the sisterhood means to that person, it could be a very hard decision. One option you may have is to do the work of coats and prep that is constantly going on (a few people are needed for that alone). If the new recruits are not people you would call sister, I would leave. You would know in a little over a week.
Besides, if you are a fun person it may just surprise you. Just because someone is pretty doesn't mean that they are vain and empty.
