If he refused to go to rush functions or rituals, are you saying he couldn't be kicked out for that?

I mean, this guy sounds like a real butthead who doesn't deserve to be a brother. It doesn't matter who is paying (or not paying) for his housing...he's setting a horrible example. He's pretty much saying "yeah losers, go ahead and charge me, it isn't out of my pocket, what do I care?" That isn't someone who deserves to be a member.

That has happen before where the person was just 'talked to' by the president about it.

Quote:
You said the Army is paying for his housing, but they don't pay for his fines, etc., correct? So take the step others have said they're "afraid" to (I don't know why), send him to collections. If he's accrued a significant amount of money he owes to the house that he's just refusing to pay (because he probably knows it's never REALLY collected), then take it to that level. Write up a formal letter, letting him know the money he owes is due by x date (or a payment plan agreed to, whatever) or his delinquent account will be turned over to xxx collection agency to make sure the chapter receives the funds it's owed. Remind him in the letter that the chapter would prefer not to take that step and you're sure he would prefer his credit rating not get dinged, so you hope he's able to meet his obligations responsibly in the given time period. But if he continues to disregard his responsibility, the chapter has no choice but to pursue collections. The letter alone might at least light a fire under his arse. Good luck.
Unfortunately, I don't have the power to do that, nor does the person (the treasurer) who does wants to/ or is willing to do that. So basically my hands are tied if I go this route.

Also, I believe the army does pay for the fines. The treasurer said we give the bill to the school contact and they pay it all, fines included.

Thanks for these suggestions, I will continue to convince the exec board to help get this situation under control, but so far, only the chair has said he'll consider it bringing it up. The others are plain refusing to talk about it. It's going to be an uphill battle.
