Maybe we need an alternative term that means family related but not the same as legacy,, hmmmm requires further thought.
In my organization (and I would imagine most NPC groups) this would be considered a legacy. If an older sister was initiated, and 2 years later her younger sister also was seeking membership, she would be a legacy. I'm confused as to what your definition of "line" is. To me it would mean the same pledge class, in which case the sister would not be a legacy of XYZ if no other members were also previous members of XYZ. In my limited experience with D-9 groups (roommate pledged Zeta Phi Beta) "on line" always referred to the women vying for membership in an organization at that particular time. Maybe that is different from campus to campus?
