Amalia-
Go back! I know as a 25 year old, hanging out with 18- 20 y.o.'s can seem weird...but if you like them, and they like you, don't let age be a barrier! Do you feel too old b/c of the general maturity level of the group, or because they are just typically younger? Did something happen that made you feel out of place?

Besides, and I can't stress this enough-the undergrad sorority experience is only a fraction of what you get by joining a national sorority...it is for life. If you think you can enjoy yourself w/the undergrad group, go for it. On the other hand, if you just feel too weird, there's no point in putting yourself in an uncomfortable situation! Anyway, my .02 is to give it another shot, and do what Pixell said too...

If that doesn't work, there's always alum initiation.... In fact, I remember one year at Tarleton, a non-trad student went through formal recruitment--she was in her 40's, had almost grown children, and was just coming back to finish her degree. Everyone loved her, but she didn't get a bid b/c she wasn't high enough on the bid list, BUT the alum group recognized what a great woman she was, and swooped in and asked her if she would be interested in initiation as an alum-and she was-and the rest is history! Since you already have an undergrad degree, I believe you are eligible for alum initiation, provided there is an alum chapter nearby willing to petition for you....think about that.

Keep us posted!
