ohhh how i have learned that being a legacy is not as big of a deal as originally thought. i know someone who was a double legacy to theta & got cut. same for alpha chi and alpha phi. i was a mu legacy, which is actually the chapter i joined. for the longest time i felt like i was only here because of my mom & it actually made me feel kind of crummy. i always thought "did they want me, or just take me because i'm a legacy?" our new member educators always said that each of us was there because they all wanted us to be there. finally, one late night study break turned into talking about kappa & my fears were calmed. not only did kappa cut a lot of legacies, they cut mu legacies as well. i've also been told by my best friend in the house that there was never a negative word said about me & that everyone loved me. i guess my picture (was of my dog & i) was a hit too! hahahaha
okay seriously, i swear this has a point. like you said, it can't hurt.

chapters cut legacies left and right. also, she might love love love kappa (who wouldn't?!) more than the other houses & a rec always helps people pay special attention to them.
okay this is long. time for homework.
