As with anything, the more you participate, the more you get out of the experience. Give it at least 4 or 5 weeks.
Good luck to her!

Agreed with this whole post. Especially that she needs to go to everything scheduled and get to know as many girls as possible. Too many freshmen have come from situations where they've known everyone in their social circle all their lives and they forget how to make friends with people they don't know at all.
You have to remember, she is in college and they're all living together & interacting w/ each other all the time so 4-5 weeks in college is more like 6-8 months in grownup time.
