As it turned out, the alums were right. She pledged elsewhere, and was in school for one semester.

I've never had a good experience pledging a grade risk. Every year we took a chance on one because she was so popular, and every year we'd lose her because she failed out of school. Has anyone had an opposite experience where someone with low grades managed to thrive academically once she pledged?
