From my experience attending a competitive southern university, I went in as a student feeling/believing I could fit in any of the groups. In the small amount of time I attended recruitment, I knew there were several I did not feel comfortable in/with. Maybe that was due to my insecurities and maybe it was how they presented themselves to me during recruitment. I can't say for certain and I will never know the answer to that.
What I can say, as I continued to spend time at the university I did realize many groups would not be a fit for me. You learn that through several avenues while attending university during your first year. It is not hard for me to understand that someone does not see a fit for them in a handful of groups after attending one full year at a university.
I do feel for the young lady, but she made her choice and she will now deal with the consequences. I am just not so quick to judge that her choice was ridiculous and that she ruined her chances. I do not know all of the circumstances to make such a statement.
I do agree that, by her not maximizing her options, she left the door open for other young women to find a place in a sisterhood they may love.
