What constitutes a member in good standing regarding dues and conduct?

• A. A member who attends a fixed number of meetings.
• B. A member who is current with dues, adheres to conduct rules, and has no pending disciplinary actions.
• C. A member who has served as a chapter treasurer.
• D. A member who volunteers for community outreach.

Answer: (B)

Being in good standing requires meeting both financial and behavioral standards. A member must be up to date on dues, ensuring the chapter can rely on their continued support. They must also follow the conduct rules, demonstrating responsible behavior and adherence to organization policies. And there should be no pending disciplinary actions; if there is an active investigation or unresolved sanction, the member is not in good standing. This combination keeps members current financially, accountable for their actions, and free of unresolved issues. Attending a fixed number of meetings doesn’t address dues or conduct, and holding a particular role or volunteering doesn’t automatically ensure good standing unless those other requirements are also met.
