Things can change quickly in the Greek world - one or two great pledge classes can turn a chapter around.
So my advice is to have your daughter poke around here and especially read the stickies on the recruitment pages. If she visits the campus, she should try to meet some sorority members if possible. And above all else, she should try to keep an open mind as she goes through recruitment.

(I bolded what you should commit to memory, but the rest of each of the above quotes are just as important.)

Its about being polite & tactful-and not asking others to speak poorly of an organization's chapters.
