If you feel strongly, make an effort to get your sisters to look again, but don't force her on them!
Exactly. I've seen this create tension with some chapters. All you can do is try to get your sisters to spend some time with her. But if they do, and they're set in their ways, don't push them. And remember, if this girl doesn't become a member of your sorority, it doesn't mean that you can't still be friends with her.
