Mom and Grandma pushing house

by:    

My Mom and grandma are both alums from a big southern sorority. Apparently their house at Mizzou doesn’t have the greatest reputation but they are pushing me to not break their “tradition” What should I say?

Tell mom and grandma that things have changed and being a legacy means nothing. These days it's all about a level playing field, because if only legacies are selected it would be a boring house that no one would want to join. I was a Kappa and Theta legacy and those houses are great, but they weren't for me. The point is, if your grandma and mom go through rush, they get to choose what house they want. Same is true for you. It's your decision.

none of the sorority’s at mizzou really have a bad rep? if your talking about being a low tier house don’t knock it until you try it every house at mizzou is great.

Say you'll keep an open mind and you'd love to share that with them... but it's important that you find the best fit for you! No matter the chapter, you will still share Panhellenic sisterhood with them.

Legacies also mean much less than they used to, chapters have changed their policies. There's a chance they cut you anyway.

My mom is a legacy of a sorority at Mizzou. I will tell you exactly what she told me: those are the not the same women I became sisters with, go find your sisters. I am not in mom's sorority. She now proudly wears my letters with mom under it and is so happy I found the house for me. Tell you mom and grandma, those are the same women they are sister with and you need to find your home.

Your mom is a wise woman! Sororities' reputations change through the years. A house that was on top 40 years ago is likely very different now.
