You never know. Ask anyone and everyone - your teachers, your friends who are already in college, your friends' moms and older sisters, your parents' friends, women you know through church or through any volunteer work you do, women you know through work if you have a job ... Alums crop up in the darnedest places.

Ask your cousins/Aunts/Grandmothers at a family gathering: reunions, weddings, baby showers, Holiday Dinners, baseball game outings...or write to them if you have their addresses from recent Christmas Cards.

This is pretty much common sense to me: Contact everyone you know and ask for help. And keep asking people to ask other people. Google it. Read through old threads on Greek Chat.

You could know nothing about alumnae associations or alumnae Pahellenics and still call up the office of sorority affairs or equivalent at your college to say, "I know recs aren't required, but I REALLY want to get them I don't know anyone Greek. What advice do you have?" The college Panhellenic will surely tell them the same thing we've said.

I conclude that people who come on here flailing their hands about simply don't want to to do the work to contact people and the leg work of follow up. Or they completely lack common sense.
