I fully agree with this. My chapter actually has a bylaw stating that payment plans may only be granted to "x" number of girls per semester. We do give people time to pay dues, though. They just have to be paid by the second business meeting of the semester. If a member doesn't pay dues, they go into financial poor standing, which means no fun stuff. If a member is in poor standing for two semesters in a row their membership can be brought up. This system works well for us. There are ways to make exceptions for women with extenuating circumstance, but it's not so lenient that we have a problem with everyone paying dues late.
