Since my idea is a work in progress, I would make all sorors pay community service hours or money for 25 years--period. Once a member becomes 25 years, they pay life membership to the Corporate Office and their community service hours/money to either EAF or the Local Chapter. I reiterate, members before a time period--say within 5 years that have been on the Directorate, were RD's or Chapter Basilei--or even GA's would be exempt from this assessment.

Punitive damages would be inability to be active until all fees are paid... That is constitutional.

I would make prospective candidates to have a minimum mandatory community service hours when they "walk into" a UG Rush or extended an invitation to join for Grad chapter. It is only provable by the "community service" that one does for an official 501c3 corporation. For example, when there is the American Heart Association HeartWalk or the American Cancer Society's Making Strides or 3 Day--yes, they need to be volunteering some kind of way 1 semester for UG and/or 1 year preceding for graduates prior toward becoming a member. That would be provable by a letter from the Executive Director and it would be creative if they added the program that shows the names on the committee for it to be believable. Otherwise, it would be wise if the candidate was working with the chapter of their interest.

I even think that the Honoraries need to be donating to EAF or working on our programs in some way by contract...

I mean, what's the point for me to voting for them or submission of legacy application if they cannot attend 2+ events, especially for graduate membership--and chapters that have mandatory assessments.

I am tired of lame skaters who feel some colors just look good on only them...

Oh, have an MIP, or have a step show--and it is wall to wall... But do Habitat or see the battered women or infirmed--crickets...

Why did they join? That is another thread.
