Others have, and feel that it is better to close your chapter than hurt feelings. I disagree with that, and always will. What if HQ told you to get your chapter GPA up or be shut down? Would you be unwilling to put women on social probation or require study hours? It might hurt their feelings if you make them feel dumb, but I think few posters would hesitate here. What about women who can't pay their dues? If you try to put them on a payment plan and they still can't do it, do you let them remain a member forever without paying?

GPA and being put on probation is WAY different than being told to hide in the corner during rush. I was once on academic probation and I think it was the best thing possible because the sorority motivated me to do better and study my ass off. Telling someone they can't be in view during rush hurts and is subjective rather than looking at someone's GPA which is objective.
