Hi again!
You are not alone with that Cardinal Straw system. My chapter does the same thing (but no Owl group). It's rather aggrivating though because every semester the list changes and our executive board DOESN'T allow work as an excuse. So for someone like me, who works full time, it's as if I am always on the list they choose to go and having to find a replacement.
I like the idea of a point system although you'd really have to be specific about what you'll allow as an absence and not. Not too mention what you'll do for those who just aren't attending the events. I know in my chapter you get a personnel, and then they usually dismiss you after warning you. Perhaps you could make the individual do an extra community service?!?!
One other idea that our PANHELLENIC does, is impose a 25 rule, in which if Panhellenic holds an event, such as a speaker, 25 women from each chapter must be present. And if the chapter doesn't fulfill that they are fined. So maybe you could use that sort of thing for your chapter and simply ask for 25 volunteers and remind ladies that they must attend however many events. And for those that wait until the end of the semester to try to get in their "25 event" they are responsible...
I could see this system working because then people would be more likely to attend events that they really wanted. Although I don't know what to tell you about those events that people don't really like...
Hope this all makes sense!
