Yuck! When I was little, I'd get upset when my mom would mix cookies in the cookie jar. I do NOT want Oreo dust on my Chips Ahoy!, and vice-versa.
It makes me sick just thinking about it.
On a serious note, this is a place where those of us in NPC groups could learn from the NPHC. From my experience with NPHC friends and family members, legacies may have aspirations and even expectations of being in their mother or grandmother's sorority, they always learn that membership in the legacy group is not promised. That of course, doesn't prevent mothers and grandmothers from going nuts when their kid doesn't get in, but NPHC legacies, for the most part, know they have to work as hard as, and in some cases harder than, everyone else.
I think this philosophy has to be brought home a lot more, especially as demand for NPC membership grows. Because of Bright Futures and HOPE, the sororities are having to make deep cuts earlier than they had to when we were in school. We have to make sure alumnae are aware of these changes.
