Thanks to everyone who responded. When I was a collegian we had "bed" quota, so I think today more girls actually have a chance at getting a bid, if they maximize their options. I am aware that being a legacy does not carry the weight it did when I was in college. I am the "glass is half-empty" kind of a person, so I will be thrilled if my daughter is fortunate enough to get a bid from any chapter let alone her legacy chapter. She is really looking forward to recruitment, I hope she finds a wonderful sisterhood.

There are still a very few schools that have bed quota, and a very very few that put a "cap" on chapter sizes (i.e. not allowing sororities to go over total/ceiling for campus, overriding NPC's quota rules) but they are definitely the exception rather than the norm.

That isn't a glass half-empty attitude, it is a smart and realistic one.
