Request of Various Committees
Scholarship Committee
Scholarship wanted to know if we agreed that there should be a GPA requirement for Gamma Chi and if so, should Gamma chi wait until grades come in and for members who have graduated should they have to send in a transcript?
All though grades should be stressed and at some point, a GPA could be given for possible research and other things, the Membership committee didn’t feel that having a minimum GPA to become a member of Gamma Chi was necessary for the reasons that …
We are more of an interest group and not an actual national organization. Maybe further down the line, but not at this point.
There are many alumni who have been out of school for years and it would be hard from them to remember and too much of a hassle for transcripts.
**However, scholarship committee has the right to determine whether this merits any awards they want to give out and maybe further down the line whether grades mean probation in membership and/or cause for termination.
Membership Questions
What are the expectations of the Membership Committee? The committee would like to know what we should be doing as our job besides bring in new members and fraternity education. Is there anything specific?

Ok first for the scholarship committee. Idont think we need a min GPA. You can do very well in a GLO but not in school. The only reason I feel a min GPA or transcript is needed is if we have scholarships in the future where you need to qualify to recieve them. Another reason you could have min gpa's is if you have some kind of "GX scholars" list where you recognize people for there achievments, but I do NOT think we should have a min GPA just to join!!
Membership Questions- I expect the membership committee to keep all records updated to the best of there ability. Continue to come up with programs for our membership. I am sorry but this is as specific as I can be on this. Hope I have helped in some way!
And to the Iota family....lets talk and plan for our future family members!!!! PM me!!!
