I'm getting on a soapbox for a second here, but these "social member"/"social brother" programs are a bad idea. Essentially these people reap the benefits of fraternity membership without taking any of the responsibilities and work that goes along with it. Furthermore, these members may contribute to some sort of party fund but are not dues paying members which hurts your chapter and deceives your national organization. Ultimately, why would you choose to be a full member if you could stay for the parties but have no obligations?
