How can the undergrads not have a say about it? You guys are front line, you should be the ones gathering your old high school buddies at the University 30 miles down the street, and getting him interested in Beta. He can then start an interest group with your chapters help.
I find it funny that people think the A.O. isn't doing 'enough' to expand, when it's all of our jobs. How many local's have you contacted in your state, to see if they'd be interested in being a Beta chapter? I have contacted probably 6 myself, a chapter brother of mine is recruiting locals all over the U.S.
So, yes, the A.O. could be doing 'more' to get more colonies, but so can you and I.
As for the 2-3 year period for getting a charter, I say 'god bless'em'. I don't want to be like TKE and SPE, if we handed out charters like candy, nobody would want them. Its just like your chapter's rush, do you hand bids to just anyone and initiate them after 3 weeks? I doubt it.
Beta is highly respected in the GLO community. We'd lose that respect if we just opened our doors to just anyone.
