A disconnect with legacies?

[carnation]

KSU, but you just know that if a sorority had that policy, the major super legacy would be Miss Skank Ho of 2011 so maybe case-by-case is better. However, you've spoken of how the Chapter Rush Crush that everyone has to have often turns out to be a disappointment. Too true and it breaks my heart when a much sought-after PNM casually drops out of the chapter after several months and a legacy who would have been the best member ever was dropped in that same recruitment.

I'm all for everyone attempting to maximize legacy placement!

This is true, but remember, we are dealing with college-aged women whose focus is generally their campus. By nature of that, Miss Campus Queen Freshman (Freshman Homecoming Maid, Freshman Hall President, etc.) whom everyone knows from HS is often more on their radar than Lindsay Legacy who isn't well known at college yet and went to HS in a completely different town (but is an excellent student with tons of involvement and would make a good addition.)

I know. And heaven knows, Miss Bowl Queen with a 2.0 is more desirable to many chapters than a normally attractive legacy with great activities and a 4.0, lol!
