This is truly a tough one and will most likely go unanswered for you. Most importantly, you have to rise above it all in any way you can.
I can't speak for fraternities, but with my knowledge of sororities times have surely changed. There was once respect for a legacy and especially one that was a daughter of an extremely active alum. This is no longer the case. I know of numerous cases where young women were cut for the most ridiculous of reasons both of whom were legacies and of course, those that were not. I am embarrassed to even list some of the reasons. This happens in many sororities across the board.
Greek Life is wonderful, but it is not perfect. There are so many lessons of life learned by experiencing this process. Take what you can from it and grow.
If I were you, I would not look for an answer as to why, but walk away knowing you are a bigger and better man. It is their loss. You will get past this with time, but I am sad for your father. In my eyes, it must deeply hurt him.
All the best to you.
