That's it! Although to be fair, there aren't a lot of college grads further up the family tree, and if you don't go to college you can't join a GLO.

Me: Alpha Phi Omega

And that's it! I was the first to attend college in my immediate family so, sadly, no legacy here. I'm hoping that one of my cousin's, whom plans on attending UTSA next fall, will change that. *Has fingers crossed*
The only other person on my mother's side to attend college was my great-aunt, she transferred to UTexas in the 60's but was pretty anti-Greek... still is to this day.

However, on my fiancee's side of the family--
Grandmother: Delta Zeta
Grandfather: Was a member of a fraternity, not sure which GLO.

I have a good hunch my future sister-in-law, who is at the moment 13, will probably make the attempt at rush when her time comes. I secretly envy her being a legacy but oh well.

greeks in my family??

I'm the FIRST to join a sorority in my entire family!! well, we moved from Peru to the east coast when i was a baby in the mid 1980s....so i guess that's why there aren't any other greeks.... yet
***oh and not only did i join a sorority, I (along with 16 other ladies at my university), am one of the founders!!

my parent's and I are so proud I went Tri Delt!



p.s. my mom considers herself a ddd, it's real cute

Father-in-law: Delta Chi
Husband's uncle: Fiji
Husband's other uncle: Sigma Chi
Husband's aunt, married to the Sigma Chi: was in a sorority in college, but don't know which one
Mother-in-law: was in a Greek-letter sorority in high school
Husband's cousins, daughters of the Fiji: Chi O
Husband: Kappa Nu Theta/ now-gone local interest group at college. Plus he's a Mason.

Stepmother and all 3 stepsisters: Willard, a long-lived local

...which is coincidental because their sorority is named after Frances Willard, the first alumna initiate of the sisterhood of which I am an alumna initiate... Alpha Phi!
