I am not familiar with dues being built into school tuition and find that somewhat to beleive? Would like to get more information and verification on this!

Dues for PNM go toward getting a PNM pin, a manual, and paper work at IHQs.

This has nothing to do with living in the house and payments as most schools do not allow Frosh to live in the GLO houses for the first semester.

Initiation dues yearly dues are for actives only and many times, the initial payment includes a basic active badge.

House payments for room and board are seperate just as living in an apartment or dorm.

I am sure that they can be grouped in a common payment, but it would depend on the GLO and how their accounting system is set up.

He meant "billed" not "built." Participating organizations, for a percentage, can enroll in the university billing system. When a student is billed for tuition and other university fees, the organization's fee will be line itemed on the total bill. The university then turns those fees over to the organization. Originally, it was only for housing, parlor fees, and house meals, but has since been extended to dues.

Just because you've never heard of something happening, doesn't mean it doesn't happen.
