I think the simple reply of showing up to activities and various community service projects of the organization would have been a sufficient answer. I know we Greeks are supposed have the mentatlity of "we don't need you but you need us" but does it have to go to this extreme? I think we can all agree that BGLO's are already being viewed in a negative manner by outsiders because of hazing and lawsuites, do we really need to add fuel to the fire by being rude and condescending to potential applicants??
How about some discretion, perhaps?

She is loaded with "excuses"...

It is a liability for me to speak about anything related to membership beyond the International Website, campus/local websites, Google, libraries and what is said to her face-to-face in her local area--assuming it is a "her" because one never knows on the internet these days...

We do not KNOW her, so it is unwise to tell her anything...
