So thank you once more, I am currently trying to get in touch with as many former sorority women as I can, hopefully it's not too late, and if it is at least I have a jump on Fall.
If they are "former" members, they can't write you a rec. Only members can do that. Please know that no matter how old you may be, unless your membership is terminated or you resign, you are a member until you die. So please, please do not call them "former" members. You are either a member or you are not. There is no other way. Just a little FYI since you aren't up to speed on GLOs. Those going thru recruitment are "potential new members." Those who have gone thru recruitment and accepted a bid are "new members." Once you are initiated, you are a "member." While in school you are a collegian. Once you leave school, you are an alumna.

End of tutorial.
