Legacy with active sister, rushing in the fall

[OleMissGlitter]

Just be yourself. I saw two legacies go through last year at a big competitive Southern University and they did their own thing. They didn't release their legacy house, they just ranked another house higher after pref parties. Therefore, they pledged something different than their older sisters. Were their older sisters upset? Yes but they also realized that not even siblings have the same tastes in sororities sometimes! (I know a family where each sister pledged something different at Newcomb College of Tulane!)

So first of all, take a deep breath and just go with your heart. If your heart says to do what your grandmother and sister did, then do that. If not pick a sorority that makes you feel comfortable. Your recruitment experience is just that, YOUR own experience! If your sister's sorority makes you feel great and happy then keep them as an option! I wouldn't release your legacy house either. But that's just my two cents!
