Every year we got irate phone calls from a non chapter legacy mom about how we cut her dd. I was assigned the job one year of answering these calls and it was not a pleasant experience.
I hear you on that one but the chapter should be make the phone call first so they have control of the conversation.

On an opposite point, it is equally as emotional for Rho Chis who have to pick up the pieces of legacy girls who are released for reasons they don't understand. The worst of the worst at UT this year was a young women who lost her sister this year and at the time of her death she was an active at another University in Texas. IMO there are times when you simply don't release a legacy. Again IMO this was one of them. But this PNM ended up at a house that she loves and they equally adore her. I am also confident that it stings a bit to know that is yet another lost connection to your sister.

Gamma Phi's policy is to let the legacy break the news to the legacy-maker in her own way. We do not require phone calls or explanations from the chapter.
