Dues are VERY different from school to school and organization to organization... although at most schools most org's dues fall with in a few hundered dollars of each other... at my school.. (which has a decidedly small greek system with no houses) my dues are only about 400 dollars a year... but I know my friend who goes to UCLA pays a couple thousand to live in... so it all depends... most orgs will give you a break down of the dues at one of their parties. Asking about money is different from chapter to chapter and school to school... I mean, I personally don't think anyone from my chapter would think a PNM was being rude or tacky by asking about the money, nor would we think she *probably* couldn't afford dues if she was asking, but I know there's probably some chapter somewhere that may think it tacky. Keep your eyes and ears open, if you feel uncomfortable asking maybe someone else will ask and you can listen in on the answer, or they may have a info sheet out somewhere that has all the info you need. If these tactics do not work and you are still clueless, suck it up and ask, becuase there's nothing worse than a financial suprise after you've fallen in love with a house you can't afford to join.
