In an ideal world, yes. But again and again, we see that it doesn't really happen that way.

I agree with irishpipes -- if you're a legacy, it's really nobody's business but you and the organization of which you are a legacy. Period. I think it is beyond ridiculous for women to be cut because they are legacies. It's kind of a wacky assumption to think that because someone's mom was an XYZ at the University of Outer Mongolia in the 1970s that Susie Rushee will want to go XYZ at Big 10 U in 2005.
And I agree with this part - to an extent. Most of the pregnant sorority women I've seen post talk about whether they're having a boy or a legacy. So, obviously it's important to quite a few people.
