I agree with 33girl that no sorority owes her a bid. More than likely, her class status was her undoing for try #3 as a senior, and possibly try #2 as a junior. Anyone familiar with Berkeley correct me if I am wrong, but I imagine a good amount of sophomores go through recruitment and receive bids, so her class standing was probably not a factor in try #1 as a sophomore.

It's probably not the fact that she was disabled, but rather, how she dealt with it and/or approached recruitment. For example, my chapter cut a [non-disabled] PNM because we got the vibe that she was going through recruitment as a joke. If the chapters at Berkeley thought this woman was being insincere, like she was going through recruitment to "prove a point", that could've been a factor.

Maybe she had a rotten personality. Maybe her grades weren't up to par. We'll never know why it didn't work out for her.

My chapter house is very classic looking from the outside, and I think it is pretty ADA friendly, though I don't know the exact specifications. Our house has a lift on the exterior of the house to transfer people in wheelchairs from the main floor to the basement. You would go out the side door on the main floor and the lift would take you down to a ramp to the basement door. We also have a full bathroom on the main floor and a room next to it called the "date room". It has a closet that can be converted to a bedroom if we have a physically disabled sister wishing to live in the house. Right now, we just use the date room for studying.
