			I think that it's important for the chapter to have recognized standards of conduct. If we are going to be who we say we are, then we have to set guidelines for what that is. 
 
Further, particularly for new members, they have to learn what it means to be a member of the organization.  
 
As groups that are selective in offers of membership, it seems perfectly acceptable that we can choose who is and isn't, what is and isn't, representative of our organization. 
 
If the new members aren't going to improve the organization by their conduct, while the organization improves the new member, than it sounds like a poor relationship and one that would be better off discontinued.
