Mothers, get a grip. It has been at least 20+ years since you pledged and formal recruitment is very different now. There are many more legacies now and most houses only consider a legacy as a PNM whose mother or sister is a member. Grandmothers, aunts or cousins are not considered, but they should be writing a rec. Also, as an alumni how involved are you? Do you pay your alumni dues? Support and belong to your local alumni group? Attend any alumni functions, meetings, etc...? As an alumni did you think to become involved with the IU chapter? Do you still support your philanthropic? I would venture to say most of these mothers can answer no to any ongoing support. With the amount of women going thru recruitment, it would almost be impossible for any house to automatically take every legacy. Most houses utilize computer software programs to analyze the data. Houses work very hard to do recruitment correctly and give each girl a fair assessment. It's not just about physical beauty, but grades, community and campus involvement, what high school she went to and scholarship are also looked at. What is her reputation on campus? What questions did she ask of the members? Not every PNM is going to get a bid from a top house. Remember, she might have cut some houses that might have offered her a bid.
