A lot of that is "big fish, small pond" syndrome.

They come from their small pond (HS) where they were most popular, Homecoming Queen, a shoo-in for everything, etc. and as resident Queen Bee of their high school, they've never really HAD to be nice to anyone to get anywhere.

Then they get to recruitment and figure that it'll be the same way. Unfortunately, if these women are well-connected to the chapters they want, it might.

However, if they're the type of Queen Bees who have a skewed perception of how desirable they are in the process (ex: you think that because you were Homecoming Queen, you're going to be an XYZ or ABC without knowing that these groups have had their minds made up about first round before you got to school) they're certainly in for a wake-up call.
