I don't recall this topic on GC before as it pertains to the NPC.
Her reason for wanting to leave was "I'm a senior and I don't go to anything and don't want to pay for it." The chapter didn't oppose the termination, the national office did. We were a little more understanding of being flat ass broke than HQ was, and she was on the flaky side to begin with. She was active for another semester, did student teaching and then graduated.

That was probably a bad example to use in this context, but I just wanted to point out that even if people DO try to self-terminate it can get shot down by the NO and they're still on the hook for dues, so they might as well try to work it out. Obviously this isn't the case with every group as there are stories of women terminating left and right because they're upperclassmen.
