SOrry to crash here, but this is an interesting topic. THere were some chapters at Baylor who had more legacies than quota. Their chapters have been around since the early 1900s and with that you have tons of in house and regular legacies. In those situations, it is inpossible to give everysingle legacy special preference in bidding. Especially when some of them just DON"T fit or DON"T want to be in their g grandmother, grandmother, mother, and 3 sisters's sorority! I think it's pretty common to invite them back to second round, to give them a fair shot, to try to get to know them. There's a certain point where you either need special permission to release a legacy or you must put them on the bid list. I know it's horrible, but seriously impossible to give special treatment/take every legacy that comes through the door. ESPECIALLY in schools that have had greek systems for over 100 years.
