Well, one thing I'd like to know is what National's plans are in this regard. One of the members in my area sent me a copy of the Torch, and there's a profile of Amber Haq (the Director of Membership) near the front of the magazine. She's a young person, and in the tour of HQ on the Beta site, there are pictures of younger women who work on the HQ staff. It would be wonderful to know whether Amber and the rest of HQ has actually come up with a plan for collegiate expansion.
I'd also like to know what percentage of Beta members are college graduates. Not to sound like a snob or anything (heaven knows that's not the case) but maybe we're working against the perception that women who have graduated from colleges and universities feel that they don't have anything in common with women who aren't collegiate (and vice versa).
Since Beta isn't a collegiate-based organization, I'd like to see the organization charter chapters at Junior Colleges (called colleges in Canada). I'm sure there are lots of women at these non-traditional campuses who would love to have the sorority experience.
Does Beta have a program for young women who aren't of membership age?
What's the percentage of legacy membership in Beta? If mothers who have members have daughters who aren't, why didn't they join?
Those are just a few questions I'd like to see answered.
