We have that same problem on our campus. We talk about dues on Philanthropy night and we'll basically say something along the lines of "Is this a realistic amount for you?" We're allowed to ask pretty much flat out. But still we get girls dropping because they are broke. Or continuing through rush and then not accepting the bid cos their broke. I mean really, it's very obvious who's the cheapest on our campus, if you must join and you have limited funds, use this additional time to see if that chapter is somewhere you feel comfortable or get a job if you don't like them because those are pretty much your options! We also get women who say, "I don't have time for this". We explain all of our great activities during rush. That's what attracted you in the first place. If you don't have time, why don't you just join a club or something or sit at home and stare at the walls instead of wasting valuable time and taking a bid from someone who may have been a great member? If we told you we never did anything, then why would you have wanted to join?
