Alpha Chi Omega: A legacy to Alpha Chi Omega is a sister, daughter, granddaughter or greatgranddaughter of a member.

least one recruitment event in an informal or continuous recruitment process. A legacy who attends a formal recruitment preference event is placed on the first bid list by the collegiate chapter.

For the purpose of definition, stepdaughters, stepsisters, step-granddaughters and step-g reatgranddaughters may be considered legacies, if desired by the Gamma Phi Beta relative. Special consideration means that a legacy will be invited to at least the first invitational round of events. If a legacy is invited to the Preference round of recruitment, she will be extended an invitation to pledge Gamma Phi Beta, thus her name will be placed alphabetically on the chapter’s first bid list.

Delta Zeta : legacy shall be defined as a sister/step-sister, daughter/step-daughter, granddaughter/step-granddaughter or great granddaughter/step-great granddaughter.

Cousins and nieces are not considered legacies. If a chapter has not achieved quota in formal recruitment or has not followed the Legacy Policy for any given year, it is required to bid all legacies for the next two years. A legacy SHOULD BE INVITED TO ALL PARTIES UP TO PREFERENCE, or at least two invitational rounds. If she is invited to preference, she MUST appear on the first bid list.

AOPi: A legacy is defined as a sister, daughter, or granddaughter; a step-sister, step-daughter, or step-granddaughter; or an adopted sister, daughter, or granddaughter of an initiated member of Alpha Omicron Pi (alive or deceased). In no case should a legacy be denied an invitation to at least one invitational event after the first round of events.
