I could be wrong, but as a regular non-officer member, I don't think I even saw any written guidelines from IHQ. I just did what I was directed to by the chapter. If we had renegade officers or advisers, I wouldn't know how it was actually supposed to be done, nor do I know exactly how it's done today. Weird, huh?

I would feel comfortable in saying that most chapters follow the membership handbook pretty closely - given that advisors, any recruitment consultants from IHQ, etc might be present during recruitment/MS, if an individual chapter strayed too far from the official policies, someone would figure it out and call it to their attention eventually.
OTW - I'm technically supposed to have a copy of the Membership Handbook as a Chapter Advisor, but I don't even have one yet! (A little frustrating b/c there have been a few times I would have needed to reference it, but they're working on getting me a copy...)
