Six of my daughters have rushed in the last 10 years, ZTA Doe. None rushed at campuses that had Pi Phi; I have 2 AOIIs, 2 Chi Os, a Phi Mu, and a Zeta. I've got to admit that for years, it was weird seeing other groups' things around the house; last week I cleaned up the play room and found an AOII bulletin board, a Chi O notebook, a Zeta pledge manual, and a giant Phi Mu cup. For years, I felt like a perp when I would wear, say, my "Chi O Mom" polo or "Zeta Parent" T-shirt. Receiving official mail complete with crest from the national offices or local chapters was also startling at first. We were very proud of our girls, though, and their sisters are super!
I threw myself into whatever I was asked to do to help, although 5 of their chapters were far away. And yes, just because someone will say something if I don't, I hope that at least 1 of my high school daughters or maybe my granddaughters will go Pi Phi!
Anyway, I know lots of moms who've experienced this because lately, few SEC women have gotten their legacy chapter so there are many moms these days who wonder, "Wow, my daughter is in a different group, how can I help?"
