Besides this being how my Greek experience started, I don't understand why this is so bad... unless I'm missing something...
If I'm reading into it correctly, I think she's frustrated because, as a legacy, she knows there are rules you have to follow as a member of a sorority: mandatory meetings, philanthropy, study hours etc... and her roommate is annoyed about those rules. Plus, she [brokengymnast] put in the effort to go through formal recruitment and did not get a bid while her roommate "has an in" through being friends with a few women. Granted, that's how informal recruitment generally works, but I can see how it can seem "unfair" to someone who went through formal.
