I wouldn't go through rush w/her if you aren't truly interested...that can backfire in the worst of ways, as in the sororities liking you and not her. It sounds like a bad Family Ties episode, but it really does happen.

She wants to "rewind" and forget all the crap that happened to her in the past, and she thinks joining a sorority will enable her to do this and start afresh. THIS ISN'T GOING TO HAPPEN. Even if she gets a bid - she is never going to be that 18 year old girl again. I would encourage her to get counseling at the campus center. If she does that and still wants to rush, support her, but don't sugar coat it. It will not help her.
