Sometimes you don't have a lot of say over where you will be placed. At OK State, everyone wanted to be in Stillwater so they wouldn't have to move, but the Stillwater schools could only accept a certain number of student teachers. Some people had to end up in OKC, Tulsa, Enid, etc. Commuting could be a serious issue along with time, energy, etc. There is also a lot of value for the president being actually present at random times, not just chapter meetings.
