when i joined my sorority, i felt very overwhelmed and not really a part of it, but i stuck it out. homecoming came and i helped with the float, i started sitting in the sorority block at the football games, sisters living in the house came downstairs and visited with me when i had door/phone duty. i made an effort to go over everyday for lunch and dinner. it got better, but it took some work and a little time, and it was so worth it!
if your daughter has any pledge sisters living in her dorm, she should make a point of getting together with them to walk to and from the house. she should pop into their room for a visit sometime. making a huge chapter smaller will help her to feel more a part of it. she should also share her feelings with her pledge trainer/new member coordinator. i'm confident that that sister can allay your daughters concerns, and give her some extra attention if that is what she needs. it is too soon for her to be dropping out, but if her feelings don't change, i would suggest that she resign before her initiation. i hope that doesn't happen, but that way the avenue would still be open for her to go thru recruitment next fall.
