Synopsis:
Linda Lee Danvers graduates from Midvale High School. She wins a scholarship to Stanhope College. When she arrives at Stanhope, she meets the girls from the Alpha Lambda Sorority. The sorority president Donna Storm humiliates pledges with initiation pranks. Linda decides to pledge the sorority to stop Donna's behavior.
Donna plans tests designed to keep Linda out of the sorority. Linda manages to outsmart Donna with the secret help of her friends Beppo and Comet. Donna suspects Linda is a friend of Supergirl, so she plans more tests. This time Linda is forbidden to use the aid of Supergirl. Linda still outsmarts Donna and is admitted to the sorority.
Donna is still bitter over failing to trick Linda. She suspects Linda must have super-intelligence and is Supergirl. While driving with Linda, she deliberately crashes the car, hoping that Linda will reveal herself. Linda catches on to Donna's trick and saves them without revealing herself. Donna is ashamed by her actions and promises to reform.
