Wowza! They did not share a date. What an incredible ADPi legacy in your family...I would love to hear more about it!

I would love to know, too! How exciting!

Just a minute, azureblue. When I was in school, we had to pledge a 5-generation legacy. She did not want to go Greek, and made it very clear, but her family forced her to do so. She pledged, got initiated at Convention, and transferred to a school without ADPi. Are they not counting her, or what?

Or, *gasp*, did somebody lie to us about the number of generations? If so, they owe my chapter a HUGE apology, because she was a real piece of work!

Maybe she was a legacy through 5 different people but only a triple legacy?

ADPi Great Grandma--->ADPi Grandma-->ADPi Mom--->2 ADPi sisters--->ADPi legacy

[atrianglepi]

I think the Adelphean has shown photos of multiple generations prior to my daughter joining also. I texted her to see if she was THE Beta Epsilon 4th generation, her response- maybe?Now if they mean 4 generations of Beta Epsilons, then no it is not her.

This is what I'm thinking, only with ADPi Mom & 2 Aunts. She was the ONLY grandchild - no pressure, huh?

[azureblue]

They didn't go into specifics, but I am thinking that they mean:

Great grandmother --> Grandmother --> Mother/Sister --> PNM??

This has me very curious now! I have seen PNM's with triple legacies two grandmothers and a mom or mom and two sisters...but never in a line like above.
