Dues Across the Country

[Kevin]

I have no idea what our guys pay now. I don't know if I'd post it during Rush. It seems to me that if it's not something I'd post on the chapter website, it's not something I'd post here. Potential candidates do search these forums from time to time. I always prefer to explain our dues situation face to face with someone so that they can fully understand what it's for, how it's spent, etc.

I don't remember. Altho, I can tell you I lived in the house all 4 years, and it was the cheapest way to live on campus (rent and dues). That's probably what pushed it over with my parents and got them to agree with my rushing.

When I was Active we paid $684 for Fall/Winter/Spring Combined and $100 for summer. We have a 1 time fee of $100 dollars to the housing fund. Candidates pay all of their National required payments plus $35 a month to chapter of which $17 goes back to the class for their events and such. We also gave a 15% discount for a 3.0 and a 50% dicount for a 4.0 GPA. The Commander does not have to pay dues. We have to pay for Formal/White Rose out of pocket which runs about $120 a couple for dinner and gifts.

Our alumni chapter dues are like $50 a year or something small like that.

We don't have a house. I lived in our so called house for 3 years and it was inexpensive as well. It was in reality 4 of us that shared a house but our doors were always open to the chapter to hang out or crash after a late night. We had all of the chapter possesions. I think there is like 8 guys that live in the same house now. and 8 more that live in the house next door. Both houses are owned by one my fellow Alumni.

Interesting point, but I don't mind being transparent at all because we're completely mid-range on our campus....very average priced in both rent and dues.

how many does your house hold Kyle? I believe ours was 32 at capacity.
