KappaSig1 you are so right on the head of the problem!
I do not know if You Tom Helbock our Executive Director of LXA. I have talked to him and he also said that many if not all of the Greeks are in financial straits, simply for the Insurance Cost caused by Risk Management and acts of Stupidity by the Active Members of the Chapters.
He stated that the cost of not only doing business but to cover the insurace costs will continue to climb! So where does an Organization come up with the money? They charge the members more!
If it keeps going up, it will be hard for new people to afford or even the current members to pay the bills.
This may be the very reason to see the demise of Greek Organizations!
In todays soceity, everyone is sue happy and will do at the drop of a hat!
I like the idea of a tier , but I think that is how we do it as they had us on the Insurance as being in Penn. Just because we are Pittsburg ( no H ) State U. in Kansas. They could not get it through their heads and we are still fighting it! It made a big difference in money we had to pay out!
It may be something that all Of the Internationals should sit and discuss if they have not already!
Fraternaly Yours,
