I allowed for the fact that this is an informal forum in not also commenting on your improper use of 3rd rather than third (in formal writing, all numbers below 11 are always spelled out in full). But using "her" rather than "she" in the nominative (i.e., as the subject of the verb) is NEVER correct, as any college student and sorority member should know (I'm sure that your sorority, whichever one it is, emphasizes scholarship as one of its primary features or objectives).
Isn't it ironic?

If you're trying to teach people grammar, begin your lecture with a proper sentence.

Like DolphinChicaDDD said, this isn't really the place for such comments. You could learn a great deal about social grace and manners from the lovely Meryl Davis.
