When I was active, going in, everyone seemed to get along. Within a year or so, we had major problems with cliques, and that put major strain on the chapter. Then, we had a president who set attendance requirements in motion. Understandable, but we were expected to do a lot of stuff last minute. Last minute doesn't work if you have other commitments. In my senior year, I shared a house with 2 other members of my chapter, and we all had jobs, plus full time class loads, plus chapter meetings. There were times when we couldn't make the meetings because of work, and that was really hard on us. It didn't seem like the others understood that, much as we might like to be in chapter, we had bills to pay, including membership.
