Legacy

[G8Ralphaxi]

No "official" legacies in my family but I do have a few Greek connections ...

Aunt - Sigma Sigma Sigma at Florida State
Grandfather - Sigma Phi Epsilon at Temple (he actually was part of a local that became Sig Ep, so he was a colonizing brother of Sig Ep at Temple)
Cousin - Sig Ep at Johns Hopkins
Uncle - Kappa Alpha at U. of Florida

Me - Alpha Xi Delta! Woo!

aunt-theta

Well, I'm technically not a legacy, but my Aunt is a Tri Delta. And they cut me on their first opportunity when I went through! But I love where I am. All that cheese you get from your PX really is true-you end up where you belong!

Crazyleggedsigma-I just love your name!!!!!

Not a whole lot of people in my family went to college so the number of Greeks is pretty small. I think that my mom's cousin was a Tri-Delt at Eastern Michigan. My stepdad has a couple of nieces but I'm not sure of their affiliations, I think one is also a Tri-Delt. My husband is a Lambda Chi Alpha. That's my story.

Have a nice day

Thanks! Did you read the story about it in ....whatever thread asked for the sources of our names?

To all of you-I forgot...My sons will be Lambda Chi Alpha legacies-that's what my Dad is! (at Kansas State, for anyone who goes there-write to me and I'll tell you a fun story about someone who lived in your house when it was still the PiPhi house... )

Like many other posters, I'm not a true legacy to any NPC organization. I am(was?) a leg to Delta Delta Pi, a local at Eureka College in Ill. My grandma says that Tri Delt invited them to affiliate, but they(DDPi) declined. Sometimes I think my grandma's a little whack, so who really knows.
I do have random panhel & local connections.
My Dad's cousin- Phi Omega (local)
The first three cousins are sisters:
cousin- Kappa Alpha Theta at Northwestern
cousin- Kappa Delta at Susquehanna Univ.
cousin- Delta Zeta or Delta Gamma, at Ohio Wesleyan. I found out all of their sororities during rush last year & I just said "Oh, we don't have that here" & blew it off.
other cousin who has rushed since I did- Zeta Tau Alpha at Univ of Evansville
of course, me- Chi Omega at the Univ of Cincinnati

No I did not read the post thread of the origin of your name crazyleggedsigma-just curious as to how you got the name


I did not name the fraternity connections in my family:
grandfather delta Tau delta at Wooster in Ohio
uncle also DTD at UT Austin

My sister is a PI BETA PHI (UC Riverside)
and my cousin is also a PI BETA PHI (UC Davis)

I am a legacy through my sister! (UC Irvine)

It is wonderful to share the bonds of Pi Phi sisterhood with my sister and cousin!

[CutiePie2000]

I am the first one in my family to go Greek, so I don't have any legacies in my family!

I don't have any daughters (yet) but I do have 3 nieces...and yes, Auntie CutiePie2000 will start "working on them" when they are in high school to think about going Greek in university!

It might be a tough sell though, since their mothers (my sisters) are a bit like this towards the idea of sororities:

[KSigkid]

My mom was in a local sorority, and my Uncle was a Zeta Psi at UConn. No one else in my family has gone Greek though.

I'm the first in my family to 'go greek' as far as I know. I remember that my cousin was in a sorority when she was in college, but I don't know which one.

[cherub]

I'm the first in my family. My younger sister joined my chapter the year after I graduted...and she just got elected to the same exec position that I had. I'm a proud Pi Phi sister in so many ways!

[kristiAZD]

I'm not a real legacy to any org. but here are the greeks in my family....
Grandfather & 2 Great Uncles - Delta Sigma Phi
Aunt & 1st cousin - Zeta Tau Alpha

If my boyfriend of 2 1/2 years and I stay together long enough to get married, our hypothetical children will be legacies to Alpha Xi Delta and Sigma Phi Epsilon. His dad is a Zeta Psi and his mom is a member of a sorority but I don't know which one.

[AOIIBrandi]

Mom - Alpha Chi Omega (Tennessee)
Grandfather - Beta Theta Pi (Davidson)
Husband - Pi Kappa Alpha (Louisianna Tech/Georgia Southern affiliate)

Me - Alpha Omicron Pi (Georgia Southern)

My sister rushed Alpha Chi Omega, but declined the bid.
