People in the wrong major will figure that out, but you can still encourage them to spend more time with their studies. No, winning a gift certificate at the end of the semester may not do it for them, but a little attention from a few sisters might.
The parties, raffles, incentives are for the competitive sisters who with a little encouragement may make a 4.0 instead of a 3.75 to beat out the competition. It's not to bring up the 0.7 GPAs. Scholarship Chairs have to find ways to raise the GPAs by targeting members in all different groups.

Ah, all good points. I'm just saying that I think the most effective thing to do is meet with underperforming women one at a time and find out what is really up. I think scholarship chair, scholarship advisor, and the member should chat.
Jumping right to "we're taking away social events" or something rarely seems to work the way we hope.
