I see your points. My frame of reference for my own collegiate chapter was a very small chapter, less than 45 women. As to the part I quoted, our new programming spreads out the learning over the entire collegiate experience with separate programming for new members, middle members and seniors. So you'd definitely miss out on some things if you weren't in at least 3 years.
Re: als' post, (didn't quote, sorry): I'm referring to only the collegiate experience, not the alumnae experience. The collegiate experience is very short in comparison so losing time from that experience is more significant, in my view. I'm one of the more "pro AI" people on here so I see a lot of value in the alumnae years of membership but the collegiate years are so very different than the alumnae years.
