Another Tricky Question from the sorority side

[JenMarie]

First let me mention that I'm not a newbie. I just changed up my SN to be a little more discreet. And I'm a local sorority member.

I met up with some of my sisters today where we started talking about fall recruitment. Some of my sisters mentioned that there may be a decent amount of girls coming to our recruitment this fall from an NPC sorority who recently had their charter pulled. XYZ sorority members were given the option to disafiliate or go alumna. Apparently there are newer members of XYZ that want the full collegiate sorority experience so they'll join the local on campus and disafiliate from XYZ.

I know that some of my sisters will be okay with this... and others that will definitely not be okay. Some will feel that they will be awesome assets because if they had any experience in an NPC, in regards to chapter regulations and formalities, maybe they could help us. And the other sisters will feel like sloppy seconds.

Part of me feels that I want to give these potential new members a home and a great college experience. Another is a bit uncomfortable with a potential new member knowing the ins and outs of sorority processes before they rush another.

As an active alumna of my house, how can I advise my sisters? What signs should we look for in a woman that will be a great asset to the house regardless where she came from, or if she mearly wants to wear someone's letters?
