All involved (including their friends - so those who weren't related to me/legacy) received little cards after recruitment that featured their sororities' crests and said something to the effect of:

Thank you for your recommendation on behalf of ____Blue Violets _____.
She has joined ___Alpha Delta Pi ______ sorority.

Sincerely,

QQQ Sorority
Alpha Chapter
Special University

The cards were preprinted and I was under the impression came from each's HQ. Now maybe this is just a local thing we did at my alma mater, I'm not sure. I imagine if I had joined one of the sororities my family would've gotten a card that said "Thank you for your recommendation on behalf of ____Blue Violets ____. She is a new sister of QQQ sorority!" or something to that effect. Just my experiences. . .
I got something similar from our USC (CA) chapter a year or two ago as well. They even told me where the girl ended up.
