I live in a small town of 6,000 people and if a girl who graduated from my high school came to me asking for recs, I'd be able to refer her to alumnae of 20 of the 26 NPCs (in town/grads from our high school). And I don't live in the South where Greek life is "do or die".

Tell her to ask everyone she knows. Teachers, school staff, friends of parents, friends of siblings, siblings of friends, women from a place of worship, coworkers, coaches, activity sponsors, anyone from your community. Often, when you find one sorority alumna, she will be able to refer you to others. If she puts in some effort, she will be able to find someone. Deadlines to get them from Alumnae Panhellenics may have already passed, but it may be good to check.

She's not absolutely dead without recs at Mizzou, but there is still time, and it's better late than never.

ETA: Many (but not all) NPCs do allow recs to be written by actives from another chapter.

ETA: If you know these women, can you write them a rec for your sorority? Do you know other alumnae that they might know / in their areas?
