You don't necessarily have to id your campus. If you want to join a sorority, get yourself a fresh attitude, a hot new outfit and go for it girl! You said a sweet friend had "nominated" you..is she a sorority member? If yes, that's a great start. Maybe you two can have a coffee and she can give you a little coaching to help you get your head back in the game before you attend an informal event. Ask her!
I can't think of any schools on the West Coast where sophomores and transfers are at a severe disadvantage in recruitment. Sometimes women who are a little older, closer to 21, actually have an advantage over the new freshmen. They can be more mature, better at relating to the women they meet because they have shared experiences and are past the "I just moved into my dorm room and can't wait to PARRRTY!!!" phase. Informal is a great way for women who may get lost in the formal recruitment process to shine.
You can do this! It may not work out, but it just might. Either way you'll be better off for the experience of dusting yourself off and knowing you can get through that disappointment and move on to your next great adventure, whatever that may be.
