Attendance

Attendance tracking without the sign-in sheet

The sign-in sheet at chapter is a ritual everyone tolerates and nobody trusts: it circulates for twenty minutes, half the signatures are illegible, someone signs for her roommate, and the standards chair retypes it all into a spreadsheet on Sunday.

GreekLink ties attendance to events and the member roster: check-ins are recorded per member, history accumulates automatically, and standards conversations reference an actual record. Chronic absence becomes visible as a trend, not an accusation.

GIN System

One of the original chapter communication portals — announcements, calendars, files, and member Q&A. Many alumni remember GIN from their undergrad years, which says good things about its staying power and less good things about its pace of change.

Strengths

  • Simple announcements, files, and calendar in one place
  • Familiar to advisors and older exec boards

Limitations

  • Aging interface and member experience
  • No location-verified hour tracking, AI tooling, or modern chat UX
  • Engagement tends to be officer-driven rather than member-driven
Pricing: Subscription per chapter; quote on request.Best for: Chapters that only need announcements and file storage.

Limitations

  • Web-first experience — members mostly interact through a browser
  • Per-member pricing means the bill grows as your chapter does
  • Hour logging is manual rather than location-verified
Pricing: Tiered, typically priced per member per year.Best for: Small chapters that mainly need a points ledger on a budget.

Per-member attendance history and event-level summaries, exportable for standards meetings, advisor reviews, or national reporting.
