If YOUR CHAPTER has a problem with senior retention, you should definitely address it with in-chapter programming.
But I don't think it should be a national initiative as for some chapters it is a complete non-issue. It's like forcing every chapter to have a committee in charge of hiring house staff when a lot of chapters don't have a house and have no prospects of one.
I just don't think every aspect of chapter programming has to come from your nationals. Create a program on your own, get nationals to approve it, and then offer it to other chapters IF they need help on that issue - not automatically assuming that all chapters come out of the same cookie cutter and will all have the same problems.
