Hi everyone,
A thread I feel qualified to comment on....I am a mom who pays the dues.
Yes, it is worth the money. But then again, I guess it depends on you (as the member). If you enjoy volunteering and doing things for others, then definitely join a GLO. Also, you may be (or not be) best friends with everyone in the chapter, but you will find a support system. This can be a great thing in a large university where your family is far away.
I believe that it is about being a part of something that goes beyond just you. You are involved with building/maintaining an organization that has perhaps been on your campus for 100 years! It is about doing good stuff beyond your own needs, but yet benefiting personally through contacts and friends. Few people have to pay for friends, but also few people ever think about participating in activities that are for the benefit of others. So it really just depends on you.
