Being a legacy didn't seem to help them very much. Not only were the legacies competing with the whole pnm pool; they were competing in the legacy pool, which appears to be a tougher group to get through. I really don't know what I'd do if I had a daughter going through one of the competitive rushes at a large school where there were more legs than quota spots. I'm pretty sure I'd never list her legacy status on the panhellenic registration form.
I am so happy that you are a proud legacy mom..congrats. I guess in my situation I have to know what legacy defines. A pnm whose mom, sister ,or aunt is a legacy ?? This is what I have known to be true. So what about a pnm whose mom and her 2 sisters were legacies to the UGA chapter and all of which were officers in XYZ chapter. Is it fair to take the pnm and spend only 40 minutes to decide ? This being from rounds 1 & 2. While I know there were many legacies I wonder how many went through with that statistic. While this pnm had many recs at other houses, do you not think that they looked at the 4x legacy and decided to cut because they assumed she would choose that house. 1300 girls,they had to make cuts where they could. I think in my daughters situation her families commitment to greek life actually hurt her in the long run.
