Are numbers are low, we have 19 guys, but 12 of us are graduating in the spring. The colony constitution state you need a 2.5, but that was made by the A.O., not us. The code of Beta says you need the GPA required to graduate at your host insititution (2.0). They are freshman, so they have only had one semester, so I can't tell you if there grades went up or down. The school requires a 2.3 to inititiate into any fraternity, so they all have that. They are our top guys, because we know them the best, and like them the best, all 5 of them. They also all are comitted to Beta. However, we don't want to piss any one off, plus integrity is something we want to stay true to, and although 2.5 isnt on Beta's books, it is pretty much suggested. You wouldnt want a member to come in with bad standing. However, these guys otherwise would get a bid in a heartbeat, and we don't want them to be persuaded to go somewhere else where they can join right away...

Have their grades been going up or down? Why are they considered your top recruites? Do they know about their scholastic obligations once initated? What are your chapters numbers like?
