If you happen to make Greek friends in the course of your daily life through classes or organizations you join, then those are good contacts. Don't just start going to Sig Ep house parties or LXA's Watermelon Bust in the hope of making connections with sorority girls. It will backfire.

I did mention parties. I know what you're saying, but I tend to disagree.
You assume she's going to make a drunken fool of herself at some party and gain a negative reputation that will hurt her. There is that chance, and it would hurt her.
No one suddenly gains class because they're concerned about a standards cmte. If she's going to make a fool of herself, that's who she is and who she would be in or out of a sorority. If she is a classless drunken fool then sororities should know that so they can avoid her.
There's also the opposite chance. The chance she can make a lot of friends among both guys and girls. So that when she shows up for rush she has several actual friends (not acquaintances from class) in a couple chapters, and guys from fraternities rec'ing her to their friends and gfs in sororities.
This is A&M though, so it's a really screwed up social dynamic. The Corps takes the best guys, so fraternities suck like a podunk state college and sororities are more like a 1st tier university. Most sorority girls will not be at fraternity parties there. It's below their social class. There are some spirit orgs and Corps events she can go to instead that might be better for networking.
