Amanda, Girl! You crack me up!
Since your chapter doesn't have a house and I'll bet money won't for a long time (if ever.....) this is a fairly hypothetical discussion for you.
Humor me and step out of the box for a minute.....
If you eventually get housing, members at the time are going to have to decide IF they want to make certain sacrifices to move into the house (if they don't move in, the will probably be accessed a parlor fee). House rules can be similar or more restrictive than dorms...NO alcohol, visitation requirements, security cards, etc. Step into the shoes of an 18 year old freshman versus a 24 year old adult....parents of freshmen expect and want certain measures in place.
This may suck for the girls who are currently members, BUT as you get NM's and after a generation (3-4 years) there won't be any question. The people who accept offices will automatically expect to live in housing and won't think a thing of it....
We can chat about this later if you want. It's difficult to explain this online! =)
