I honestly would have felt really weird being in another sorority than my sister. Do I think I would have been given a chance at another group had I not given them the impression I was all in at AOII? Sure... My campus LOVED to poach other groups legacies! I think it is really hard to draw conclusions without talking to the girls about their experiences.
That was the climate at FSU in the late 70's early 80's but that has not been the case for a some time. What I am seeing now is that chapters are not willing to take a chance on a legacy, especially if the legacy chapter is a chapter that is popular with the PNMs. The best chance the legacy has is to not be invited back to her legacy group early in the recruitment process, so that other groups see that she is now "fair game."
