amanda, i see where you are coming from, and it certainly sounds like you have firsthand knowledge, having served as a vp finances, but i have to disagree with you on having vtmom's daughter ask about fining. if a pnm asked me that, i would be worried that she might be joining a sorority just to say she was in a sorority and she was looking for the sorority who would fine the least, or has other consequences for nonparticipation.
hopefully, when girls are going thru recruitment they are not already thinking about how they are going to get out of participating in sorority activities. as an advisor, i have heard sob stories from girls who "can't pay their dues" or how"can't afford to pay their fine", but who grab a starbucks everyday, and eat out at different restaurants several times a week where the average meal costs around $15. these girls are either just bad at managing their money, or their sorority obligations are not high on their priority list.
