Ok, let's all get on the same page. UWO_2007 has an associate degree. That is NOT the same as a bachelor's degree, so all the questions about "can someone with a bachelor's degree pledge" are moot. And ya know what? I'm sure there are sororities out there in nontraditional environments who HAVE pledged women who already have a bach degree...because they liked her and wanted her to join. If a sorority wants you and you want them....they will usually fight for you, including going to their nationals and the school and asking if it's OK. If they just say "aw shucks, you can't pledge" and don't pursue it further...well guess what? THEY DON'T WANT YOU THERE.
From all I've heard about the UW schools, and from what GCers who are alums of those schools say, this is NOT a traditional envirnment. She's not at Ole Miss or LSU. I doubt everyone pledges first semester freshman year.
Now, on the other side of the coin...UWO_2007, I think you have to stop seeing yourself in the "counselor" role if you want the sororities to accept you. I mean, I'm 40, one of my good friends is 25, and we interact on the exact same level...I certainly would never refer to her as a "young adult." It's kind of condescending. I don't think you are meaning to do this, and maybe you aren't in real life, but your posts are coming across a little like that. If you think you'll really enjoy the majority of sorority activities then that's fine, but you're not going to be thought of very highly if you're always the one acting "older and wiser." You're going to be the 30 year old buzzkill.
