Nothing here looks "unfair" to me... if she didn't fit with that chapter, she didn't fit. I hope she found a home.
We have a similar legacy policy - any legacy invited to pref goes automatically on the first bid list. If there are more legacies than quota, the legacies are ranked relative to each other, so they're all on either the first list or the top of the second list. Legacies are followed by national recs (anyone for whom a national officer has written a recommendation), then by other PNMs.
We cannot release a legacy going into second round, but we can release her at any other point. If a legacy is released, there has to be a d@mn good reason! I don't think we're required to make a courtesy call to her mother (or whoever) but I know my chapter would do so.
It's a shame, though, when you have to place great women on the second bid list, and potentially lose them to another sorority or see them not match at all, simply because quota was 20 and 25 legacies came to pref.
