Kappa Legacy Cut After Pref....Not Given Bid

[FSUZeta]

when I was a rush counselor, a double legacy to a chapter(with a sitting sister no less and mom a nat'l officer) wound up with a bid to another chapter. Work was done behind the scenes and double leg. was able to be a pledge to her legacy chapter, which put the chapter over quota by one. This was before QAs.

What was done, I don't know. I would imagine that the legacy chapter had to pay some sort of fine, or agree to take one less pledge the following year, and the bidding chapter probably was allowed to replace the legacy. So things can get messed up and later rectified, although I would imagine it is exceedingly rare.

addendum: I mistakenly omitted that whatever deal was struck was between the national officers/headquarters of the two chapters, FSU panhellenic, and the two local chapters.

Interesting- and this happened in the days or weeks after bid day?
