Quick summation of answers...
The requirement of two (faculty, staff or administration), one (scouting
or other youth service organization) and one community is not in the
National By-laws, its in the Standard Chapter Articles of Association. Its
most of Article VI.
Cost $0.
Anyone who isn't current seeking an undergraduate degree may be an
advisor.
I don't know what happens if you've got a Chemistry prof (PhD) as an
advisor who decides to take classes for a math bachelors at the school
where he teaches Chem. Probably won't have enough time to advise APO
anyway if he is....
As for recent graduates...
As has been mentioned before, nothing in the bylaws preventing a December
graduate from becoming an advisor in January for example, but *generally*
a bad idea. In general, your section chair should be wiling to take the
recent graduate off your hands and do her best to help find someone else
to fill the advisory slot. In a couple of years, after the section chair
has made him sectional rep to your in-state sports rival and had him as
sectional webmaster, you can have him back. :) Hopefully at that point,
however you've been so successful at finding advisors that you don't
*need* him back. 1/2 :)
