My chapter has always had a system where if a sister skips a class during the week (for no legitimate reason), she is to give the chapter a dollar. The scholarship chair collects any money owed at the weekly business meetings. She also records any As that sisters receive on tests, quizzes and major papers. At the end of the semester, the sister who received the most As would get all of the money from the missed classes... and none of the money has to come from the chapter’s account. They also submit study hours, and if a sister doesn’t submit hers on time, she would also owe a dollar to be added with the rest of the money.
Starting this school year, the chapter has also decided to reward the sister who achieves the highest GPA for the semester. It will be $50, which will actually come out of the chapter's account.
The difficult thing with some of these scholarship programs is that you’re operating on the honor system. I know of some girls who lied their way out of giving the chapter a few bucks when they skipped a couple classes. On the other hand, I know one of my sisters who ALWAYS skipped class, and had no problem handing over at least $5 to the scholarship chair every week. Funny thing is, she always had one of the highest GPAs in the chapter.
