This describes my roommate at UGA
exactly (this was early 90s, though). She got cut right before prefs from Legacy House and ended up getting dropped from all but a few houses that were "beneath her" and she quit rush and never pledged anywhere. Mom, Granny, Cousins, Aunts - were stunned. And wounded.
At a huge state school like UGA, where the chapters have been around for a long, long time - there are usually enough chapter legacies to say, Phi Mu, Alpha Delta Pi and Chi Omega - that they could hit quota three times over each year if they just took legacies.
Oh well! Live and learn.
