I thought sisterhood was for life, through good times and bad. This woman should be cut a little slack.
I agree. I know my chapter is not one of the more well-to-do Gamma Phi chapters, and when a sister is having problems paying her dues, we make every effort to accomadate her through promissary notes, payment plans, etc. I know I paid my dues horribly late this year because I had some money issues, and as long as I signed the promissary note it was fine.

I think her nationals should have offered her some type of alternative rather than expulsion, and if they are using expulsion as a threat, should have worded it more politely.
