Frustrations with Rec's

[St3ph888]

Okay so I'm kind of frustrated, I'm trying to secure some rec's for my school, I've asked around and done searches, so I sent an e-mail to the Alumnae Panhellenic, I'm from a pretty big city and I would assume there are many Alumnae in my area, however I never heard back! I've talked to my former teachers, and family friends the ones who were in sororities are ones that aren't on my campus! I'm contemplating re-sending an e-mail to the Alumnae Panhellenic but I'm worried that Perhaps I didn't receive a response because my e-mail was poorly worded or something. Does anyone have advice on what I should say etc? [FONT='Arial Narrow']And if I still don't receive a response, then where do I go, and what actions do I take?
I know that Rec's aren't required at my school, but I'm going through as a sophomore, and I figure they can't hurt me.
Thanks in advance!
