And older chapters with established patterns of behavior are VERY hard to break out of the cycle despite the hard work of a "decent treasurer." You'll find it's hard to have a 100% collection rate than you imagine.
Sorry meant nothing by that, it's just that my particular chapter had a treasurer last year that rarely looked at Omega Fi and really didn't take action against delinquent brothers. I on the other hand have done it by the book and now (because I've collected all his late money) have a 100%+ collection rate...

But you're right, old habits die hard.

Pike4Life, your chapter seems a lot like mine (financial structure-wise) Omega takes a huge chunk out of our budget (like 10-12%) but it's keeping our collections at a very high level so it's hard to complain.

Thanks for your advice everyone!
