Neither of my parents went to college and the few people in my family that did never went Greek, will this really hurt my chances? I'm also a minority rushing at a majority white school.

Recommendations can come from any sorority alumnae - not just family members. Ask your high school teachers, friends' moms, coaches - anyone who went to college - if they are sorority alumnae and would be willing to write a rec for you. But, at IU recs aren't usually your ticket to a bid - connections are. Are there friends from your high school in chapters? Are you friends with them?
