[beta_guy_2600]

My chapter is just awful. There are only about 40 guys in the house even though our house has been around for about 150 years.

The guys in the house have the mentality that doing greek things is uncool and 'gay.' Due to this mentaility, we cannot attract new pledges (a total of about ten in the last year) and we have practically no one living in. The house is a mansion on campus and is empty, dirty, and poorly run.

I have tried taking leadership position, but got stuck with recording secretary cause no one wants to see change.

We have not gotten in trouble with nationals because we dont outright break rules. Like all beta houses, we drink (a lot) but there is practically nothing else that we do. We dont care about the rituals and are in clear violation of many recruitment standards.

I am writting all this because I cannot stand paying dues (which are about 900 a year) and get practically nothing out of them. The only thing i recieve in return for my dues is beer and a few (lame) parties.

What should I do?

Please do not ask which chapter I am from.
