I am taking on a new pledge, though I didn't really want to.
I feel they may be too far behind and will not complete the program.
The chapter president as well as the other members of the pledge class agreed that this person should be given another chance (this was the potential new member that didn't show because they didn't have anything business casual to wear
)
I am asking for their fee UPFRONT so that I don't have another fiasco like the one I caused before.
I feel that because the chapter prez is their friend, they are going to expect concessions and leniency, which I WILL NOT GIVE.
This person is already entering the pledge class late; they must work twice as hard if they expect to activate.
They have 3 service hours already, due to them attending a service project that my chapter had, and we agreed to apply those points.
She has missed the first test though, and has a lot of catching up to do if she expects to meet the requirements.
MY PERSONAL OPINION: The potential new member is a flake. I don't think that this person is going to follow through on ANYTHING. She has demonstrated to me, even before the clothing fiasco, that she is unreliable, inconsistent, and flighty.
I don't want to invest in someone who isn't going to contribute to the health of the chapter.
I am hoping she proves me wrong.
Thoughts?
