I have a relative who is an engineering major at Auburn and in a sorority. One of her best friends in the sorority is also in engineering. I'm sure there are more, but that is the one I have heard mentioned. She enjoyed knowing someone in her engineering classes her freshman year.
However, I do remember she had similar thoughts as your daughter as she went through the process. In fact, she didn't plan to pledge, but she changed her mind at pref. She is extremely glad she did. I doubt your daughter will meet her at rush though as she is working behind the scenes.
I agree it doesn't hurt to have your daughter to ask.
