The proposed bylaw change for a house fee is designed to address the additional paperwork that the NB has to read and take care of from chapters with houses, as well as the need to visit these chapters more frequently due to they increased liability they impose to the organization.
The dues as a sorority are quite low compared to other fraternal organizations, and it's unfair to impose the additional costs associated with those chapters with houses on all members (whether they're chapters have a house or not).
I hope that answers your question Beth.
Sisters,
Robin
