At this moment, outside my old chapter house, there's probably at least one rain soaked couch by the volleyball pit.

At my undergraduate campus, the fraternity houses didn't have rain soaked couches sitting by the volleyball pit -- all the furniture had been burned in the bonfire at the party the night before.
How common is it for a chapter of any given fraternity to have a full advisory board (or more than just one chapter advisor)? Is it as formally structured...or is it similar to a bunch of random alumni showing up at the house one day to help? I know one of the fraternities at my undergrad. campus would have one day a year, during the summer, where several alumni who still lived in the area would show up to fix things around the house and take care of the yard.

It's getting more common. I understand I'm slated to be on the next board as their "financial" advisor.

Explaining and complaining does nothing does it.

Reference to lost among the threads previously posted!
Not all Alums live near the school, granted, but, I am sure there are some that still do.
Yes guys will carry the couches out onto the deck or the volley ball pit or where ever and then wonder why they do not have nice furniture and complain about it.
Soroitys are more demure and appreciate the surroundings that they have. Maybe even musch stricture rules on treatment of furnishings.
Talking with a lady who is a Veep at Her bank, see stated that Her Husband was an SAE at KU! (This is many years back), that the entry way looked beautiful, but the rest of the house was a wreck.
Oh yes, College Kids are exactly that, Kids, Adult by law, but not in the head at times.

33girl, did your chapter ever put furniture in the yard? Because mine sure did!  We also had a couch on our roof for quite sometime, but that was a "gift" from Delta Sig.
