Personally, I doubt high school will come up. But if it does, there's a way to change the subject and sound positive without lying...like "I feel like I learned a lot from high school and I'm hoping to learn even more in college!" I had a horrible high school experience socially but I never remember it coming up...even as a freshman new member, honestly. High school is over for her now, remember that.

Also, remember a sorority isn't going to make her outgoing. She has to make herself outgoing. If she joins a chapter it will certainly be helpful to have an automatic group of friends and social activities, but she's going to have to leave her comfort zone. I sympathize because I was the same way, but she needs to start getting the right perspective NOW...my mom always told me to be nice, polite, and friendly to everyone and if they don't respond in kind, that's their problem. It's cliche, but it's so true.
