I don't know exactly how true this story is, but she was obliquely told it by a member of DEF who's also a friend of both of us, so it could be true.
On the subject of awkward questions-what should I say when I'm asked what chapter I'm a legacy to? I know I'll be asked whether anyone in my family is Greek, and I don't want to lie and say no one is or that the chapter isn't on campus when it is, but I don't want to be cut just because other chapters assume I'll only want my legacy chapter when that isn't true.
My mom and I can't think of a good way to deflect that question without sounding evasive-any ideas?

If you don't list it, you won't necessarily be asked this question. Not every person that goes through recruitment is asked if she is a legacy.
