I had a tough time finding recs for my daughter last year, too (not SEC, ACC) and I was in a large Greek system in college with friends in all different houses. It was very time consuming, and I sent out so many emails to random groups like my Sunday School class, PTA, etc. to find them. On the other hand, when my daughter's friend needed help to get recs for deferred recruitment at an SEC school, I had the contacts for her in minutes. The ease of obtaining recs definitely depends on where you go and what houses they have. (and who you know, of course!)

The girls from our kids' school tend to congregate amongst three or four different sororities at UGA, so I've never been asked to write a rec for anybody even though I have an "alum" sticker on my car. The funny thing is that most of them also pledge the same houses at Auburn and Alabama, too.
