If you are a legacy, should you mention it?

My D will be going through rush in the fall, and I'm helping her line up recs, etc. so that she'll be all set when summer gets here. Things have changed a lot in the 30 years since I went through this. Fortunately for me, I was clueless about any of it and had a great rush experience! Since she is a legacy, is it something she should put in her resume? I'm sure it'll be somewhere on her registration, so I don't know that there's a need to call it out. I don't want other houses to release her thinking that she'll just want to go to her legacy house. She is going into rush (or recruitment--trying to use the new terminology!) with a very open mind, and truly wants to find the house that is the best fit for her. Should she mention it to actives when she rushes her legacy house, or assume they already know? (we always knew when we had legacies going through, so there was no need for them to bring it up) While I'd love to see her end up at my house, I don't want her to A) come across as obnoxious or expecting to get in (she knows better than that) and B), I don't want her to make other houses think she would not be interested in them if they find out her legacy status. Just really curious as to how/when/if to bring up legacy status. Any advice would be appreciated! She'll be at a larger SEC school with a fairly competitive (but not crazy) rush, BTW.
