So it's November and everyone is just going to wait to offer COB bids until January so they can have a normal NM period. So she gets the bid in January and accepts. Come time to initiate in 6-10 weeks (depending) she decides it's not for her. NOW she has to wait until FR of the following calendar year - not that fall. That's penalizing her when it may have been the GLO's fault for not giving her a proper NM period. Sorry, but no one is ever going to get me to buy into that one.

I think maybe I'm confused by this example, specifically the part I've put in bold.
Sorry, I'm just trying to understand your point of view..

In addition, I agree that us moving to Indy was a very smart move. In the 10 years since I was initiated, I've noticed HUGE improvements within our organization. And fortunately for me, I'm in an alumnae chapter with a past National President, our current National President, and many others who have been working within the higher ranks of AST; I feel like I'm able to get a closer glimpse into what we're moving toward in the future, and I like what I've seen so far.
