I know that right now you can't possibly be seeing this the way many on this site are. I will admit that some of their responses are a bit harsh.

The fact of the matter is that you will need to pay this bill some way or another.
The good thing about this experience is that you will think a little harder about what you want and what is involved in that. Sometimes I wish that sororities and fraternities could have a program that would help pay dues (like schools with scholarship). There are a lot of great people out there that would be great greek members but are put off by the costs which are rarely set in stone.

I do think also that every organization should make sure and inform their members about the costs of being part of such an organization. Luckily, my mother was part of a sorority and said that no matter where I joined that she would pay the dues.

If only our organizations could have such a program.... ( I honestly think that is why so much of society views our groups as elitests who view others as lowly - which just isn't true. )
