This. I only glanced at the links but it did have a lot of personal information about your daughter. Including her name, school and chapter.

The link to your blog featured a post entitled "Getting In, Growing up and Letting Go". I think the "Letting Go" portion is a bit ironic, since blogging about your daughter's sorority experience is kind of the opposite of Letting Go.

BTW, the site in question (since the OP revised her post) is sororityparents.com

As with all sites, I would caution people never use a real name or identifier, but I do see that this site is powered by the NPC.

The mere fact that it's supported and powered by the NPC does not make it any more safe or reputable than other sites.

The name of the site is in the title of the thread.

I think the site reveals way too much about her daughter. There is already a stalker out there.

The same results can easily be achieved without naming her daughter, or her daughter's sorority or school.
