Enforce your academic requirements in your constitution. Kick brothers out that do not meet the GPA standard. It's harsh, but being touchy-feely (no offense to the person above, but i don't know how punishing a brother by not letting them wear letters would do anything) about it and having empty threats does nothing. When people joined your org they knew all the requirements going into it (and if they didn't then you should review your membership education process).

Consider having a tiered system where if you fall in certain GPA ranges you have to do a certain number of study hours or meet with a designated brother to go up to date on progress. i.e. between a 3.0 and 4.0 you have no restrictions. 2.5-3.0 you have 5 mandatory study hours a week. 2.0-2.5 10 mandatory study hours, social event restrictions, and meet with a the scholarship person to report progress on grades for the week. 2.0 and below you are removed from the fraternity. If the people under certain restrictions don't do what they are required then also remove them.

Also, reward brothers in some way who have great GPAs, like maybe a drawing at the end of the semester for a $200 scholarship or something.
