Anyways, again, thank you to everyone for your help. It's so interesting to see how greek communities operate in different parts of the country. Thanks!

Dues vary enormously from campus to campus, depending on many things: is a house maintained? Is a house meal plan included in the dudes? Are costs for formals, mixers, other events (Homecoming decorations, for example), big/little gifts, t-shirts, etc., etc., included or are those "extras"? Some people have been known to say it isn't necessarily the basic dues / fees that can be a concern, it's all those little extras -- those $5, $10, $20, $50 hits that may not be noticeable immediately, but that can add up over a semester or two.
By the way, I agree that one of the most interesting and valuable things about GC, from my perspective anyway, is, as you said, seeing "how greek communities operate in different parts of the country." |
