What do we, as members of BGLOs, owe aspirants?
I have taken a great deal of time pondering this question. What do you owe an apirant?
Not one thing!!!
Yes, all humans deserve respect. However, I believe that respect is earned not given. As long as an aspirant approaches situations in a respectful manner they should receive respect back. I have a friend who is a member of a BGLO, one day she was wearing some para and this girl walked up to her and pointed to her hat and said what's dem letters right there and my friend told her she said yeah I want to be apart of that what do I have to do? Are you telling me just because she is human she deserves a respectful response. Although my friend handled the situation in a manner befitting her organization I was indeed embarrased for the girl.

Class. You can exhibit it even when dealing with ignorance, which is not the same as rudeness or disrespect. Not all people have the same social skills. But class reflects well on the person first, then the org.
