The past couple of years we have been trying to recruit better.
Even if that's what got them in the door, it isn't necessarily why they stayed. Sometimes people who seem to be joining for the shallowest of reasons turn out to be super sisters...and vice versa. You might be surprised at what the alums have to say after having a few years out of school under their belt...and how strongly they feel about and love the sorority. So don't discount them because of what you think they were.
