I've been a Chapter Adviser for about 3 years now. I read somewhere in some manual once that they learn from their own mistakes...therefore, as long as they are not burning down the house or doing something crazy, I let them have their own ideas.
Sometimes, I just sit at meetings and listen to them talk about something or watch them plan an event. Every now and then I will give my 2 cents, but most of the time; I try to let them make their own decisions. I also never tell them, "Well when I was in college we use to do this..." I am there to make sure they are following the bylaws and rules. Anyway, when I first started I felt unappreciated, but now I have learned that the success of the chapter is my reward. When the chapter does well in recruitment or succeeds with a new philanthropic event, that is my appreciation...
