I was in the same situation as your daughter. I walked out of the dorm with my sisters to see my best friend crying in the tv room. I felt guilty, but there is a reason the sorority picked your daughter and not her friend. She can't let guilt or loyalty keep her from this opportunity. She may even end up helping her friend to get a bid in the future.
