So AmIblue 2.0 (aka my daughter) is headed to college in the fall. She is iffy on going through recruitment, but she thinks that I want her to do so. I legitimately don’t want her to unless she wants to, but I also think that having the relationships sororities provide is a good thing. I’m just asking for parenting advice and how to proceed cautiously.

First: please keep us posted on your employment status, it sounds promising.
Second: your current continued honesty in conversations with amIblue2, regarding her future recruitment possibilities and connections, is a good move. Your daughter's curiosity now gives her information to make focused and timely decisions on her own about the subject once she's on campus.
I know you realize it is her life decision to make, and hope her listening skills bring her to all the realizations of your desires for her future.
