I agree that a house parent can be very effective. In leiu of that, a proctor (grad student as suggested above).
If a chapter advisor lives close enough to really understand what is going on in the organization all of the time, he or she can also be effective.
Unfortunately, it isn't always easy -- or even possible to find an advisor who lives close enough to really keep a finger of the pulse of the chapter. Our advisor in Greeley lives in Cheyenne, Wyoming and our Ft. Collins advisor lives in Denver. For a while, our Division Vice President for Nebraska, Lincoln lived in Des Moines. It can be tough.
Of course the opposite side of the coin is that we don't want such an iron hand in our chapters that it casts a pall on all of the social aspects. But the threads in this forum clearly indicate that we need more control in many areas.
