2. I'm not saying this is the case for the quadruple legacy, but overly confident legacies are annoying. Some legacies think they are damn near members and act very familiar with the GLO and the chapter. That's a good way to get axed. That's a step below wearing "future XYZ" and "my mother is an ABC" shirts around campus or wearing "ABC" socks around campus and saying "my mom bought these for me." Yes, folks, all of this does happen. The parents (or other reasons why the person's a legacy) are sometimes teaching these aspirants that this stuff is okay.
I hate those shirts that say "Future XYZ" I just saw a ONESIE that said "XYZ Legacy" on it. I just thought... oh god, here is an innocent kid going to grow up thinking they will be an XYZ!

I heard from a friend at one competitive school that PNMs know they will get a bid to ABC because actives literally came up to certain girls that are drop dead gorgeous, models, and cheerleaders and offered them a bid a week before recruitment even started. I have a hard time believing this because I would of expected them to be caught for dirty rushing already?? Is this common in other competitive schools?
