My daughter told me that at every single house they asked her "Are you the first one to go greek in your family" (or something along those lines) so they were fishing to find out if she was a legacy somewhere. She always said "no my mom and my aunt were both Phi Mu, but I am going through rush with an open mind. I want to make sure I choose the right sorority for me". I think it worked because she only got cut from one sorority, and that was one she was planning to cut anyway, they just beat her to it. haha She wasnt upset, but she shocked me a couple of times by her cuts and liking one sorority so much one day and cutting them the next! I also thought she was going to go with a different sorority as her #1 by the way she talked about them all week and she ended up cutting them before pref!! Crazy! I was really surprised that she went through it so calmly and based her decisions so rationally from one party to the next. Phi Mu treated her very well and she felt that was the group of girls she would really fit in with the best. That is the reason she chose Phi Mu and it had nothing to do with her being a legacy. I am proud of her for the way she went through rush. Following her own instincts and not blindly following my past or where her high school friends were going.
