Lecture away man- you are saying some good things.

The advantage I see in these massive new pledge classes is that it jump starts a chapter with cash flow and makes it easier to get into a house right away or very quickly if a chapter house is an option.

But it takes time for a chapter to really find its place and character on campus- and that does create a lot of inner conflict at first.

The trade-off there is hard to to side with either way, but the good news is that the large size is good for the long term, while finding a certain direction is short term.

I am sorry to hear you have advisors at every meeting and checking up on you like crazy. I am an advisor myself, and I only come to chapter meetings when I have business to present (usually housing stuff since I am involved with that as well) or I just want to check things out and get feedback from the chapter on the support they need, if any.

There is nothing worse an advisor can do than take away the spirit of trust and self-governance that makes being a Beta so worthwhile.
