Me personally, I'd leave it off. It's nobody's business and you can advise the applicable chapters through alternate methods. While going through rush conversation, the girl can say she knows Greek women and that's part of why she's interested in joining a sorority. But I wouldn't tell anyone her Mom, the light of her life, is an XYZ if XYZ is on that campus.

And the rule is ridic. How about the legacies you have that you aren't aware of? Some sororities are really restrictive on what they consider a legacy, but some are pretty loose about it. Was your grandmother in a sorority? How are you supposed to know? She's been dead for 30 years and your mom never mentioned it. Maybe she didn't even know. I wouldn't feel the least bit bad about leaving that nugget off the form.

A friend of mine joined DPhiE, and didn't find out until after she pledged, or possibly even after initiation, that her grandmother was also a DPhiE.
