Also, take some steps to protect yourself.

Create a situation where it'd be impossible to cover up theft and theft will not happen.
In addition to what LaneSig said, I'd initiate civil proceedings against the guy to get the money back.

Any way you look at it, theres always something sketchy going on.
I think the greeks should use either cash or checks, although alotta times, from what I've seen, checks seem to bounce.
Keep your receipts as well, because my school also does audits, even if the student government doesnt fund the greeks, which at my school they dont.
I dont think the school advisors necessarly need to handle the treasurers issues in a greek organization. We had a few different faculty advisors who werent even greek, that didnt always make the right decisions concerning money matters.
It'll be a good learning experience for the students, when managing money becomes part of their college experience. In matters involving stealing money, make em walk the plank!
