legacy policies

[shadokat]

Delta Phi Epsilon legacy policy:

Delta Phi Epsilon policy requires that special consideration be given to each legacy (sister, step-sister, daughter, step-daughter, granddaughter or step-granddaugther). The chapter members should avail themselves of every opportunity to become acquainted with a legacy. She should be carried in recruitment as any potential new member, bust she should be given an added opportunity (party). If a legacy is in danger of being dropped, the International Vice President of Membership must be contacted. She shall assess the situation and has the authority to reverse the chapter's decision. If the legacy is invited to preference, she must be placed first on the final bid list.

Delta Phi Epsilon asks that consideration be given to legacies because:

1. Having grown up in a Delta Phi Epsilon environment, a legacy will usually have a realization of the responsibilities of sorority membership and will be prepared in advance to assume them.

2. By her close association with a Delta Phi Epsilon member, a legacy will usually have developed a great appreciation for membership in the sorority.

3. The invitation to membership to a legacy is generally a meaningful experience for the chapter, the legacy and the legacy's Delta Phi Epsilon member.

4. Alumnae support or rejection can result.

5. It shows respect to our alumnae sisters.
