I think she's trying to emphasize her point that she never would have expected recruitment to go this way based on her experience the year before.

I think knowing she was a sophomore, she was prepared for more "drops"; however, I don't think her gpa was necessarily low, just not what it was coming in as a freshman. Many chapters here "drop" for gpa below 3.0 regardless of class. I have a feeling it was starting out her freshman year with the swine flu that may have put her in a bind to begin with - that and her first year rush experience. :/
