We need to keep in mind that NOONE IS ENTITLED TO MEMBERSHIP. I do acknowledge that over time orgs need to change to keep up and not to become obsolete. However, I beleive that I can speak for both DST and AKA when I say "EVEN AFTER 87 AND 92 YEARS, RESPECTIVELY, PEOPLE ARE STILL BEATING DOWN OUR DOORS TO GET IN". Personally, I don't see a need at this time to change these policies in regards to Associates degree holders who do not wish to pursue a four-year degree.

But to the others, lemme ask you something. Irrespective of what your current membership policies may state, how do you feel about situations such as the one N4L mentioned? Do you feel that your membership polices should be modified to accomodate junior college graduates (Remember, community colleges have only been in existence for the last 25-30 years or so), or do you think the membership policies are fine as is? Should sucessful junior college graduates be "penalized" from membership because of a stigma that a 2-year degree does not carry the weight of a 4-year degree?
I ask this not only as a Bachelor degree recipient, but also as an Associate degree recipient.
Lemme know what you think.
