ANSWER #2A: I don't really kow the exact number, but I think it's only
about thirty or less.
ANSWER #2b: We do not currently extend membership to ladies as Brothers,
but do extend membership in our Little Sister program. The only real
contact we have with coed chapters in our region is through conventions
mostly.

ANSWER #3a: At this time, we have no plans of going coed...however, if
the National Fraternity decides (against better judgement, in my opinion)
that we have to go coed, then we most probably will, in order to keep the
chapter alive and active. Please understand, however, that we will fight
this in legislation.
ANSWER #3b: Mainly because we made a decision in 1976 to remain all
male, and it has worked for us. I'm not saying that we haven't had our
share of complete [insert expletive of your choice] in regards to this
subject, but I hope that one or two bad experiences won't be cause for
what I think is punishment for the rest of us.

Thank you, Brother Gagliardi, and I hope that I answered at least part of
your questions without offending anyone.
