Ditto, however I disagree with his point that 'peer pressure' shouldn't also be used here. If the chapters aren't taking accountability, then yeah pushing them to is a GOOD thing. If there comes a point where the fraternities are doing everything or even are all putting in a good faith effort, and feel like they're being punished unfairly they can make their case.
If the options are 'encouraging accountability' resulting in none, and quasi-enforcing it with social and public pressure... then yeah I'll take the latter. And that goes for any situation, not just this one. Our orgs have certainly made stands against changes in the past, and are capable of doing so again if the bridge is worth dying on. But this isn't that bridge.
Re: Chapter Bylaws - aren't chapter bylaws usually varied by campus anyway? If only for minimum campus GPAs, but I'd think for an assortment of other things. Whether or not adding something like this into their bylaws would be an option or not depends on the org, but it's not necessarily a strange concept.
