You set budgets and goals and have deadlines and turn in reports. The only difference is that the sorority's "product" is a social organization, as opposed to marketable services or goods. I do agree, however, that there will be people that procrastinate their entire lives, and someone will have to pick up the slack, but again...no different that the "real world".
I VERY MUCH agree -- SigKap, listen to AlphaFrog! She is dead on on this.
