I think there are a couple of ideas behind inviting a legacy back at least once:


(1) your mom/sister/grandmother was an ABC. Obviously she had the ideals ABC looks for, and chances are, since you're a relative, you do too.

(2) you may be so nervous -- or the sisters may be! at my college we got legacies through so rarely WE were more nervous than THEY were during rush! -- that a 2nd time around will ensure everyone got a chance to calm down and be themselves.

(3) ABC owes the sister. ABC is only as strong as its women, and as much as sorority members owe their sororities, their sororities owe their members, too. Making sure they take a good long look at a sister's legacy is ABC's way of ensuring the sister doesn't feel slighted -- or like ABC thinks it's "too good for my daughter."
