I can't speak for other sororities other than my own, and we don't have a chapter at Ole Miss, but alumnae have no involvement in membership selection in Gamma Phi Beta, other than writing recs. Membership selection is the responsibility of the collegiate members, and alumnae and advisors do not influence this process beyond providing rec forms.
Judging by many rec forms I've seen, I think this is generally true for most NPC groups. The forms tend to be pretty clear that the alumna rec writer shouldn't expect any information during recruitment, shouldn't contact the chapter to give added input or attempt to influence the process, shouldn't expect to be told what happened to the PNM during the process, etc.
