This is an excellent time for your daughter to learn tolerance. Every sorority has members who drink and every sorority has members who don't drink. Your daughter will not be required to drink to fit in and will find many other women who don't drink.

Many active members are juniors and seniors who are over the age of 21; it's legal for them to drink. Every sorority has tight rules over what is acceptable behavior around alcohol and what isn't acceptable behavior, for both women under 21 and women over 21.

Same thing with swearing. Some adults swear. Some adults swear a lot. Get over it. That has a lot to do with self-presentation and not much to do with character. Some research suggests that people who swear are actually more honest than those who don't.

I think you are doing your daughter a disservice by encouraging her to drop immediately. She should go through the new member period and see the whole chapter for an extended period before making the kind of judgments you are encouraging her to make.
