... we could hijack this thread and just talk about fun PA city names including:

Beaver Falls, Mars, Zelienople lol

But back to the subject:

You definately need bylaws that have live-in requirements. The colleges that I attended required the officers to live-in. You don't live in, you lose your office. And since it's a standard to fill the house, those that aren't living in (or have not filled in the live-in requirement) are put on probation.

We used a point system. Each member recieved a point for holding office, living in, their year in college - some other things that escape me now. So after the officers signed their lease if there were rooms left over, we went to the points. Lower the points, more than likely that you'll live in.

I feel your pain of filling the house. I've been on that fence as a collegian and as an alumnae advisor.
