This. Legacies whose mothers, grandmothers, sisters, et al are active with ABC would know ABC is colonizing. But, unfortunately, many people don't have anything to do with their GLO once they graduate, so they may not know about the colonization, and therefore can't give their daughter (or whoever) a heads up.

Your friend's daughter probably had to fill out a registration form asking if she were a legacy to any of the existing groups on campus - and then someone realized the form should have included the colonizing group as well - hence all the phone calls.
