Just addressing the sister side of this: don't worry about it. I knew especially during the early stages of the new member period there was a good chance the new members wouldn't remember my name. After all, I had to remember about 15 of them, but they had to remember about 50 of us. Don't be afraid of telling them that you need to be re-introduced, they understand. They've been there too.

And on that note.....if the OP is in a pretty big chapter she may have 30-40 pledge sisters at least! Add onto that maybe a 100+ actives! (just a guess) That's a ton of people to learn!! The sisters will understand if you forget someone.

True. New Members are usually meeting SO MANY people within a few weeks, so not remembering a sister's name is not creepy or bitchy at all. Heck, there were new girls in my chapter who called me Jackie or Jessica for like 3 weeks.
