She assured us she was, and then a semester later she resigned.  It just makes me really sad.

Why? College-age women are just that -- WOMEN. They have no one to blame except themselves if they refuse to accept responsibility for their own actions. If they get initiated, they made a decision to get initiated. If they have doubts, they should resolve them before initiation. That is one purpose of the New Member period. I am not sad if someone becomes a member of a GLO and then quits. It's better to have someone that doesn't care resign (if that is what makes them happy) than to have them stick around in name only and hating it.
