But that's not really a fix. If people aren't coming to chapter, it's a symptom of something bigger, no?

Or am I reading too much into this?
I don't know. We had this rule. There are always girls who LOVE mixers but hate chapter (I loved chapter, but I'm a rules and order person. But I also loved mixers... maybe too much). These girls will always have shoddy "reasons" to miss chapter, and then will complain about not being able to have their say in issues, or claim not to know about the new rules, or whatever. There's also the girls who do 1000000 activities (they're RAs, and in the musical, and in chorus, etc), and this gives some incentive to prioritize the sorority.

We actually used a point system, and you got 10 points for going to chapter, and 5 points for missing chapter but reading and signing the minutes. If you missed less than one chapter, you could pretty much make any event, and if you did miss chapter, you could make it up by wearing your badge or your letters, or doing philanthropy, or getting good grades, etc. It made it a little fairer.

God, sorry this is so long.

ETA - Agh, I knew someone would have already put up an answer...
