We also have a study hours system based on GPA. I think that it will work out a lot better when we move into our house this fall. That way, things will be more structured. Each sister was assigned a "study buddy" who was in their major or a closely related major so that they could use each other as a resource as well as get their work done.
We have also come up with special awards for those who are doing well in school. This past semester, our director of scholarship would hand out two awards at chapter--the "Smart Cookie" award and the "Seat of Knowledge." The "Smart Cookie" was homemade cookies, and the "Seat" was a toilet seat that she bought and everyone who received it got to keep it for the week and sign it. These awards were good ways of motivating people.
