I thought this excerpt was rather interesting and will hopefully encourage discussion...
"The daughter of one of these co-workers recently participated in formal recruitment at a major university here in Texas. My co-worker had been Chapter President of another NPC group when she was in college. Yet, she encouraged her daughter not to list her sorority affiliation on the recuritment application. When I asked my friend why she had done this, she told me that she did not want her daughter to be penalized by her sorority affiliation. This puzzled me so we discussed this further. It seems that my friend’s sorority was not one of the “stronger” groups on
the campus her daughter chose to attend.
She didn’t want her daughter to feel obligated to join this group if it weren’t her first choice and at the same time she didn’t want
the other groups to judge her daughter on her own sorority affiliation. It appears that questions and concerns regarding legacy recruitment are not unique to AOII -- the alumnae of the other groups I am familiar with hold the same discussions.
