I can't imagine a freshman being a sweetheart at my school. It's an honor you get after CONTINUED support of the fraternity. Quite frankly, a freshman who got it would probably be accused of sleeping her way into it.

Unless they have a sweetheart court, I would honestly tell your friend to chill out and nominate you maybe next year.

I second that. The Delta Chis on my campus don't have a sweetheart, but they basically deemed me their "unofficial" one. But that wasn't until after I had been hanging out with them for almost 2 years. If you just started school 2 months ago, you might make some enemies very quickly if you win.

On the other hand, I can't really see you winning (no offense) if only one or two guys have said this to you.

If, however, you do become their sweetheart, whether it's now or sometime in the future, basically just help them out however you can. My chapter has included in the by-laws what a sweetheart does and what we should consider before voting (Does he help out our new members? Does he assist with things like fundraisers and philanthropies? Does he cheer us on during Greek Week?). Just little guidelines for choosing a good sweatheart. Basically, hang out with them, bring them some food, congratulate members on accomplishments (like induction/initiation), and participate in their fundraisers and/or philathropies.
