Oops...it was pointed out to me that I can't do math (which is true for
the most part...and I'm an engineering major!)...The total for Pledges
in one semester is $65, not $60...but that's a minor detail :-)
in LFSB,

Remember Derek's comment, though...Even though the proposition is
an increase to $75, we have to keep in mind the SCOPE of the motion. Because
the scope puts the max at $75, it is still "legal" and appropriate to "bargain"
our way down, so though we may not want a huge increase, $75 gives us all
something to work at. I mean, if the proponents for the legislation said
"Let's raise it to $100", that would definitely give us more leeway to work
with. I think an increase is appropriate, but $75 is too big of a jump...<br>
<br>
On a somewhat tangential topic change, Epsilon Mu's Active dues are $45/semester,
Associate dues are $20/semester, Pledge Induction Fees are $30 and Initiation
Fees are $35 (for a total of $60).<br>

Conferences.... ;-)<br>
