On one hand, I think it would be really cool to have a member in the chapter who was descended from a founder. OTOH, if she's not a good fit with that particular chapter, it could be miserable for everyone involved. It's the same as with any legacy.
Luvgoldens, I hope your daughter is doing well!

When I was a junior in college, I think it was, a PNM went through recruitment that was a descendant of one of the Theta founders in some way. I think it might have been a great-great-great-whatever aunt. She did end up joining Theta!

She was here last night, but wouldn't talk much about the sorority situation. I know they have to narrow it down, but the whole process sounds like it could be damaging to one's self esteem. I don't think I could have put myself out there like she did. |
Can't see the picture unless you're her myspace friend - which is probably a good thing.
Recruitment can certainly be hurtful, but in the end I think it is more of a positive learning experience. She did well to continue through despite the disappointment and hopefully will continue her resilience!
