A mother called up a girl in a sorority, She said, you know _______ really wants to be an XYZ-you know she IS a legacy etc... She didn't know how to respond and stumbled around with "Oh I know everyone will look forward to meeting her."

Yes, I think this is extremely common. Tacky for the mother, but then again, maybe she doesn't realize how tacky it really is.
The active member gave the right answer. Every collegian in a sorority should answer the same way - very vaguely. I think even if the girl said, "I'll look for her during rush" or "I'll be sure to introduce her around" is a little too much - the less info, the better.
Wouldn't most actives reply properly - or am I assuming too much? Isn't this type of protocol discussed within every chapter? It's been quite a few years since I was an active, so I don't know..
