Expansion Problems
I just finished reading the Beta Magazine...and wow. Talk about sugar coating our expansion issues.
We have 120 chapters...down from 122 on the fact sheet on the website and down from 129 when I pledged. Our pledge numbers are down from last year and our active number has decreased as well. I began looking at the recent expansions, and oddly 9 out of the 15 I could get actual number for are below Beta's national average in actives, with 5 of them being in the red zone. There are 13 chapters total in the red zone out of all 120 chapters.
That says to me that our expansion program needs to be reworked. I think rather than concentrating on more leadership programs and making chapters send delegates our AO needs to start dedicating itself to Expansions.
