Chapter Funds Went to ... Something Else

I found out some information that is really bothering me, and I do not know who to tell. Our treasurer's little told me that our treasurer used chapter funds to buy two kegs for one of our big party weekends. I'm just disgusted. Now, I don't know if he took straight from chapter funds or if he used the chapter account and then refunded it like if he didn't have his own money at the time to fund it, nor do I even know how much a keg costs. Either way, I just do not know what to do.

It's a huge violation of our national policy and of course our local policy. How do I go about this? Do I confront him about it and see if it's true? Do I ignore It since it was at the end of April and his term is ending this semester anyway in November and I legit just found out (not a big fan of this option)? I am only a sophomore on our exec board and he is going to be a senior. We should always hold brothers accountable, and you don't get on exec to make friends. How do I approach this from your opinion?

When you tell your advisor about the kegger violations, be sure and mention how you personally used some other kid's student activity fees to buy your cousin at a neighboring school a rho gamma tee for rush.

Do you have a chapter adviser or some alumnus who oversees your chapter?

PM me if you need some help with this.

For the record, the proper advisors know about the shirt, and it is fine under the condition that the money will be lost and can only be allotted to certain costs as I explained in my previous thread. This is no way Karma. It's not even the same organization, so back off and help me with this.

This post is funnier than seasons 4 and 5 of Seinfeld. And all the Christopher Guest movies.

It's probably okay. Your officers probably okayed it because they were going to lose funds or something. That always makes any use of funds okay.

While I agree that this poster is ridiculous, NOTHING is funnier than seasons 4 and 5 of Seinfeld.
