Use social media, especially Facebook, to your advantage.
"I am thrilled to be attending UF this fall and have decided to participate in Sorority Recruitment. I understand that I need to have a letter of recommendation to each of the 17 sororities on campus. If anyone has any leads on sorority alumnae* who would be willing to write for me please let me know."
Include a recent photo of you in perhaps some Gator gear where you look polished and happy. Facebook has an algorithm in determining what shows up on feeds and photos seem to help posts get to more people. Plus more people "like" and comment on photos, which also registers with the algorithm. FB interprets those as "important" posts and makes sure that more people see what you have posted.
Set your privacy setting to friends of friends so that your parents can share the post to their walls if they are on Facebook. They know more adults after all! That helps cast a much wider net.
If you need help figuring out how to do a sorority resume for your rec packet use google to help you. There are some good examples on the net. They will be slightly different than a business resume.
Good luck! You are starting at the right time.
*note proper spelling of alumnae. You haven't misspelled it here, but just a heads up since many girls do misspell it.
