honeychile,
I would definitely go ahead with the recommendation. It gives your friend a choice, even if she waits until the very last minute to make up her mind about where she wants to attend college this year, she'll at least know that if she decides to go back to USC she's in good shape to go through recruitment.
The hard part is that we get so emotional about someone we really love possibly having a chance at becoming a sister, it's so tough. One of my closest ADPi friends had a little cousin who I watched go through High School and then enter college, she grew up to be a particularly wonderful girl. When she rushed I could barely hear about it, I so wanted her to go ADPi! (My friend wanted to give me the day to day run down on what she liked and what she didn't, but I couldn't listen to it- it made me too nervous!) She is a great ADPi sister now, so the story has a fabulous ending, but I really understand the emotional pull the situation can have.
I hope you friend does return to USC, NROTC is so demanding, I can understand her reluctance, but you might say that becoming part of a sorority will most likely bring a warmth to her college experience that it didn't have before. There are millions of stories of how joining a GLO literally saves an entire collegiate experience. I hope this happens for her (and hopefully for ADPi!)
