Will listing these legacies hurt his chances at houses other than his legacy chapters? This is for rush at U of Kentucky, if that helps.
Don't be 100% sure that a legacy WILL get his/her house, whether they want to or not. On the sorority side, I had a close friend from a competitive SEC school whose sister graduated the semester prior to her rushing. Her sister was quite active in recruitment the year she rushed, so her chapter was WELL aware of her coming through. Anyway, she was dropped. Not because she wanted to be dropped... yes, the sorority chose to drop a legacy and choose anther girl. Needless to say, there were only 2 legacies (including her) going through rush that year. She ended up in a sorority she absolutely loved for four years. So the lesson I learned quickly about legacies? Treat 'em like any other PNM coming through recruitment! You just never know!
