ADPi allows a legacy to be cut. The biggest reason this policy was changed years ago was due to some campuses having a flood of legacies going through recruitment. Typically at Bama we have almost as many legacy PNMs go through as quota. How fair would it be to have an entire pledge class of only legacies?
It also used to be policy that if a legacy was cut mom, grandma, sis, etc. had to be called. That's changed too and personally I'm happy about it. I understand moms' frustration over this change, which has been in place for many years and is published in our Inat'l magazine every year. We simply don't have the time to make that many phone calls. Plus those calls were very unpleasant to say the least.
