I can just hear the moms now:

"I was a housemom for 20 years, yet Amy Alpha's mom serves as National Officer for 5 and is a Super Legacy?! *^%^%$5%!!"

I promise I'm not nitpicking, just adding to the discussion. I don't have a better solution, lol.

I actually really like the idea of a "Super Legacy," because it indicates that the member has made a commitment to the organization. I'd prefer the "Super Legacy" idea to the idea that the daughter some woman who hasn't done anything for her sorority since college would get the same consideration as the daughter of a committed volunteer.

It wouldn't be THAT much of an issue, since even on a not-so-active alumnae level, most people are familiar with the local and national "Big Squirrels" (to steal a term from AGD) or a sorority's equivalent, that if their names came up in rush-related discussions, it would not be a surprise and that their daughter or sister would be considered a "Super Legacy." I know it's done in college admissions--the children of big donors and high-level alumni volunteers (class presidents, regional club presidents, interviewing chairs) do indeed get a second look.
