Things sororities value that you might forget you can do(regardless of their value in the "real world")

Management talent - Prom committee, or any indication that you're able to organize things -- conferences, meetings, workshops, dances, socials. Can you make meetings run smoothly and swiftly? Put it on the application

Art/design/craft talent - who do you think designs the shop windows and floats, tee-shirts, little sister favors, senior "yearbooks" etc.? Sororities POUNCE on art or craft talent in anyone who isn't heavily tatooed and pierced.

Music/drama/dance talent - they're looking for someone to arrange, write, choreograph Greek Week skits, Greek Sing,

Sports talent -- don't know about running, but if there's a DG at your school, all the other sororotieis are looking for girls they can enter in Anchor Splash (swimming races) Maybe distance running would qualify you as a good candidate for dance marathon.

Philanthropy-oriented: ever work with kids, seniors, special needs folks? Might be just what they're looking for to help out with their philanthropy.

Go on the websites for the sororities at your school, and see what their activities and philanthropies are. Believe me, "useless" talents (cartooning, calligraphy) may be seen as golden (although they didn't feel so golden when I was lettering formal bids at 5 in the morning)
