chapter dues

by:    

Am I the only one surprised after creeping on the look book to see Kappa has the highest live-out dues? $1,400 a semester, then it mentioned there may be a one OR TWO year live in requirement? Yikes. Maybe an established chapter could do that, but new one? I’d be running for the hills.

I thought the same thing! And its not like they get the full sorority experience with having older members or getting bigs, and they won't even have a social schedule the first semester or two. Yikes! Lower your standards kappa

I’m no Kappa supporter but this is a very obvious attempt to influence PNMs. Just stop, they haven’t even recruited yet, they aren’t a threat.

And these first two commenters are clearly the same person (using “yikes” twice, who even says that?) an alum who got cut from the old Kappa?

Girl, what? I say yikes all the time when I’m typing, and I agree to those two saying yikes. Two year live in policy would make me think twice personally, especially since now freshmen have to live on campus for two years.

Not the OP, but I don’t think it’s even about them being a threat because literally no one thinks that. I didn’t know these facts before, but they’re clearly in the look book for PNMs to see on their own.

I think it’s ridiculous too for them to expect that. I’m so taken back by that and my dues aren’t cheap either.

I’m already in a chapter here at OSU and my opinion about the Kappa re-establishment is private to me. What I can tell you is that maybe the reason that the fees are so high is that it is expensive to re-establish a chapter, and the extra fees are just a part of that in addition to the high financial commitments of greek life. You can always ask about the main logistics of the fees at the events hosted by Kappa.

I remember GPhi & ZTA weren’t even close to that high when colonizing. Plus, maybe it’s just me, but I think it’s ridiculous to make your new members pay for recolonizing costs when they’re not the reason the chapter got kicked off & needs to recolonize. I’d expect nationals to be paying those costs.

Members are not supposed to pay for recolonizing fees, the nationals are supposed to. If they were told to pay that I would be honestly very shocked and would not think it is worth it. It would make the nationals look poor and not classy. Could it be a high cost of one-time fees or is this after one-time fees? This is stuff PNMs need to be asking if they go with Kappa: are any of the dues one-time fees and why is this higher when the house will be filled. If they have a live-in requirement this should bring down the dues. Not up!
