KappaKittyCat, it is unusual for me to disagree with you, but in this instance I would say it depends. I know that MANY chapters (maybe it's a Southern thing) want to have that very information. It is not considered tacky and in some cases it could be influential in the initial rounds. Some DO want to know what position or community activities your parents were involved with. I can only GUESS at the reasoning behind it. Perhaps they want to know if you are from a family committed to community service. Maybe they want to know if your involvement and dedication to your GLO will likely extend beyond your 3 or 4 years of active status. Maybe it's a reassurance that you can afford sorority life, because in the end, reality hits when the projected cost falls short. There are probably a myriad of reasons. If someone asks for this information, it's probably a good indication it is necessary or could be beneficial. A big blank on a rec would draw more attention than having a completed form.
edited-Erin, are you rushing at KU or K State? I know we have some Kansans on GC.
