WAIT, WHAT??!! You are a legacy to a chapter no matter where your relatives went to school. You stand no better chance of getting into a Chapter if your Mother, Grandmother and all your sisters were xyz at UofDumb or if your going to UofSmart. All legacies hold the same amount of weight. I would be so careful if I were you. You don't know the Kappa's a Michigan State and can not possibly know that her sister wont become a member of Kappa. I'm sorry, but that is CRAZY TALK. When a legacy walks through our door that thinks they have a bid like you do it is bye bye. They don't care who your relatives are. Ladies don't like girls who are not humble in my humble opinion.

I can't imagine that any organization wants some not-yet-a-member going around telling people what their policies are, especially if those policies are misrepresented.

Precisely.
But don't you know she was raised in it, bless her heart.
Volleyballgirlwhatever:
Perhaps you should tell us what organization you're 'already a member' of if you would like us to take your claims seriously.

It is easier to talk about being a legacy and make a connection when you can show your family picture on the wall and meet girls that had family in it with your family. I am not gonna talk about how well I play volleyball when I play tennis. I do think you have a better chance at a local chapter being a legacy when you can build that bond and I am not saying some girls don't falter and aren't invited back regardless of being a legacy but having a family member in chapters that are nothing like the one you want to join makes no reference to your ability to join even as a legacy so it shouldn't matter.

Sorry, what organization are you speaking about again?
Because I'm sure we could verify your claims with an active member. And if your membership is assured you wouldn't mind sharing right?

What you judge to be "the wrong type of girls" may be the exact women who make your sister happy. Help her get recs for all the groups (if Mich State even needs them, I don't know) and then don't say another word about it to her. It's amazing she's decided to go through rush at all with your attitude.

For the record, Princess..."Michigan" (wolverines) and "Michigan State" (Spartans) are TWO DIFFERENT SCHOOLS! Learn the difference before giving out information. She asked about Michigan STATE NOT Michigan. Stop giving advice when you aren't even Greek, yet.

Volleyball29...I'm sorry everyone on GC is being so mean. How about providing us with a link to your chapter to be? I'm sure they are wonderful girls and you'll fit right in! Also I'm sure their HQ would love to do a story for their magazine on great ways to cultivate legacies (like inviting them to attend the formal).

Or when people ask me how much I like "Penn"...I have to tell them, "I wouldn't know...I DIDN'T attend an Ivy League school...I attended a Big Ten university."
THERE IS A BIG DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO SCHOOLS volleyball29. Also, I'd LOVE to know what GLO it is that you are so certain you will get a bid from....I'd also love to know what school you plan on attending. I'm willing to bet you might not have as much of an "IN" as you think you do.
