Thank you so much for providing a good discussion along with clarification on RFM and getting a bid. Another issue I am curious about is regarding legacies. We've had a lot of discussion in our local (alumnae) Panhellenic and among friends whose daughters have already gone through recruitment this year at other schools. I know policies vary greatly between sororities but when I read my sorority's policy on our national website, it seems to defer to the collegiate member selection process with regards to the placement of legacies on bid lists. Does that mean that a university's Panhellenic overrides what a sorority's policy is? For example, a friend told me her sorority either releases legacies after the 2nd round or then they can not cut them BUT they don't have to put them on the top of their bid list. But then she found out at our large public university, their panhellenic told the sororities if you take a legacy to Pref, you have to extend a bid. It does seem unfair to take a legacy to pref and not extend a bid to her but does that happen? Her daughter wanted something else so she preffed it first knowing she would get her legacy even though she put them 2nd since there was no risk. And she got her legacy.
