Our alumni/alumnae aren't REQUIRED to pay dues, however they do (and are encouraged, hehe, to) make donations of whatever amount whenever they can. These range from like 30$-above. Also after initiation there is an option if you want to become a "life member" which means you pay up front a certain amount of money (i forgot how much it was this year, but bigger than the regular active's dues) and basically from then on, you are exempted from paying dues for as long as you live. Of course, there is already the mentality that once initiated, we are members for life, but you guys know what I'm saying right? Like basically you just have the privilege of not paying any more dues for the coming years and of course, escape inflation, vs the people who just insist on paying regular dues yearly (and stopping once they graduate). The "life member" payments goes in this trust fund that basically helps Nationals, our philanthropy and scholarships.
AlphaChiGirl, do all NPC sororities allow payment of dues with credit card? (Im assuming that's what your CC stands for

)Just curious.
