I'm going to step back in and say this.

I think this is a scared high school senior who genuinely does not know how to go about obtaining recommendations, which are crucial at the school she is planning to attend. And she does not have the benefit of friends or family who can guide her in the recruitment process. She may be timid, she may be reserved, she may be clueless. Who knows?

Keyboard courage is way different from real life interactions; having coached and mentored more than a few 18-30 year olds, I'm constantly amazed at their lack of confidence in handling new situations.

Personally, I've met many young women who are the first in their family to even attend college, let alone attempt recruitment. So I'm going to give her the benefit of the doubt and once more repeat: contact the Houston Area Panhellenic, you've been provided the link. They will help you to the best of their ability; you've been given other excellent suggestions, so get a wiggle on! (I also wish she'd go over to the recruitment forum and read adpiucf's excellent sticky post).

Again, to the OP: good luck on your recruitment.
