The concept of a boarder (if it's take boarders or lose the house) can be awesome, if she's/he's the sort of boarder who never actually spends any time in the house except to sleep. A boarder who wants to be part of the GLO can be a very hairy issue.

It's difficult to have one set of rules for members living in and another for boarders. The standard room contract applies to members as do most of the lease agreements between HC and the chapter. So the issue then is who does the baorder sign the contract with and who governs her activities? It's a very messy wiggly line so that the best thing is to just simply not do it unless there is some compelling reason. In that case, the insurance company should be contacted to determine the legal issues and requirements thereof.
When I was Director of Housing, we just didn't do it. Simpler that way. And yes, what do you do about ritual in the house that only members can attend? Do you bar the non members during that time? Is that legal in your locale? Too many gray areas.
