Okay!!!! Let's start by getting real with people.
Incorporate criminal background checks, require that aspirants submit several essays addressing ethics, bring the the interview back.
Don't balk---- the requirements are just as rigorous to get into college, obtain employment, etc and if you are an active alum of a BGLO you know (1) your still learning and (2) its definitely a labor of love.
What we have to offer is a real privilege---- and you have to be qualified. Having the min. gpa is not enough or having a 4.0 and sitting in your dorm room, i.e no community service no campus involvement is not enough.
Okay, we addressed aspirants---know for undergrad members.
Simple--- idle minds and hands are the devil's playground------as grad we need to keep ug busy with community service and also participate in and support their initiatives---let them know that their current work lays the groundwork of the organization's future.
BGLOS ARE IN NEED OF BRIGHT, SANE, LAW-ABIDING INDIVIDUALS. This must emphasized at the beginning by letting our young people know that and I think BLGOS have been doing this. There is no way to work around, be "hooked up" or circumnavigating hard work.
For some weird reason people don't feel like the rules apply to them, they lack confidence and wind up falling prey to some sadist who hems them up in a room and beats the crap out of them and abusing them in the name of sisterhood/brotherhood.
To sum it up--- we need to teach our undergrads that we do not have to settle for less when it comes to taking people in-- -- and to view the intake process seriously and that their decisions on candidates not only effects their individual chapters but the international program
