Hi all,

This is my first post on this website. I was considering running for Treasurer in December. One thing I was thinking about doing is raising dues by $100, as a social fee. I recently have gotten the feeling that our chapter is falling behind because we refuse to spend chapter funds on alcohol. We constantly squabble and this topic of paying for kegs is a burning issue in chapter. Raising dues and using the new revenue for alcohol would remove this issue.

Everywhere I read that chapter funds are not to be used on alcohol. But I am pretty sure that most every fraternity on-campus AND off-campus do this. If I were to open an account with a local bank and had our Social fund there and separate from our chapter dues would that be technically against the rules?

Also, is any of this plausible? It was just a couple of quick ideas
