You may have the clause in the constitution, but did you enforce it? If you didn't, then they know that it doesn't matter and the behavior will continue.

Do you have sanctions against brothers who don't meet standard (2.5, I'm assuming?). And by sanctions, I mean social probation, proctored study hours, etc.

Do the brothers want this to change? There has to be some who do- you can't go anywhere if no one cares.

One program that seemed to be semi-successful for my chapter was one-on-one meetings. We had one sister who had a consistently low GPA- at midterm, we started meeting once a week. I made sure that she was staying on top of her homework. I bugged her through texting, Facebook, everything. It not only helped her grades, but it also improved our bonds as sisters. With a larger portion of brothers, I'd ask for volunteers from your Exec board, or other high-performing brothers, to perform this mentor role. It may seem like more of a pain in the butt, but if someone's constantly on them, they have no excuses.
