Membership
BES is a society which is formed from those who have taken part in a BSES expedition. Typically, students aged 16–25 apply to take part in an expedition. They are selected by interview, and are then members of an expedition. When a BES Explorer successfully completes an expedition, and on the recommendation of the expedition Chief Leader, they are admitted to the society. Society members may vote in the AGM, and help to govern the future of the society. One other way of entering the society is by becoming a leader.

Famous quotes containing the word membership:
“The two real political parties in America are the Winners and the Losers. The people don’t acknowledge this. They claim membership in two imaginary parties, the Republicans and the Democrats, instead.”
—Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. (b. 1922)
