Well said as always, JustaMom! My sorority does hold legacies to a certain degree of esteem and we are expected to treat them with special consideration - up to a point. We are never expected to bid someone we feel would be detrimental to our sisterhood, and we are given plenty of time during rush to make such a decision before it reaches the point where we would have to have her top our bid list.
Speaking of legacies, I mentioned to my husband last night that Katie and CeCe are Delta Zeta legacies and he looked positively stricken. I said, "No, that's a very
good thing" and he answered "But what about Flounder?"
"Huh???", I said
"Flounder, you know in Animal House. He was a legacy, right? Isn't that bad?"
