fines vs points
i'm from delta upsilon in west virginia (the only zeta chapter in the state of wv) we have a fine and point system. we have a excuse book at yahoo.com and for manadatory events, such as recruitment, rituals, chapter, etc you have to send in an excuse, it could be for homework or work or another reason why you cant be there. if you miss an mandatory event without putting in an excuse you get fined. 20 bucks for chapter and 5-10 bucks for other events. the point system is a point for each dollar you would get fined. so chapter is worth 20 points. if you send in an excuse you can get the points. if you dont have 85 percent of the points for the semester, you can't go to formal or other social events. some people hate it, but i think it works well. there are 3 other chapters on campus, azd, adpi, agd and our total is 65, and we usually make total during spring recruitment.
nice to see other zetas out in small chapters!
