This would allow them to become full chapter advisors. Instead, a resolution was passed that established a 2-year pilot program allowing four of the chapters with the most need for chapter advisors to initiate women (usually professors or local businesswomen) who were already serving in a mentoring capacity.
The details of this bylaw change can be found in the link which appear immediately following. Kappa Kappa Gamma – Many thanks to KappaKitt圜at for this information.Ĭurrently, only alumnae members of a local sorority that has become a chapter of Kappa may be initiated into alumnae membership in the Fraternity.Īt Kappa Kappa Gamma's 2002 Convention, a bylaw change was proposed that would allow selective alumnae initiation. Normally these women are working with one of KD's college chapters as perhaps a faculty advisor or have had contact with an alumnae association who then nominates them for alumnae initiation.) Kappa Delta does not have a specific alumnae initiate program although they do, under specific circumstances alumnae initate women. Kappa Delta - (sort of.under specific circumstances) From Alpha Delta Pi's founding, their membership policy has been supportive of this philosophyĬhi Omega - yes (under specific circumstances) This puts the chapter or association in the awkward position of having to refuse someone if they do not wish to sponsor them. Individuals may not approach the chapters or associations and request that they be proposed for membership. Either three alumnae members, a collegiate chapter, or an alumnae association may choose to approach a woman they know to see if she is interested in alumnae membership. IMPORTANT: Alpha Delta Pi does not accept members on their own recommendation. Where the National websites contain information explicitly addressing alumnae initiation, I have included the link to those webpages. "Yes, they will under certain circumstances initiate non-collegiate women" or The 26 members of the National Panhellenic Conference: If you have further questions that have not been answered here, please contact the NPC group that you are interested in directly.) This is information that I have gleaned from websites and other GCers.
#ALPHA SIGMA ALPHA ALUMNAE UPDATE#
(Note: If you know of information below to be different or you have updated information to share, please PM me so that I can update this list and we can all benefit from this sharing of information. Where do I find information on alumnae initiation for NPC groups? I'm just curious as to who all does do this.Īn excerpt from my thread called My Advice to Prospective Alumnae Initiates I've seen several people in organizations other than mine post that they do alum initiations. See CutiePie2000's GREAT thread on this subject here: Others will initiate any woman who seems to be a good addition to the sorority but didn't have the chance to go Greek in college.ĭG, Alpha Phi, Gamma Phi Beta and AOPi seem to be popular choices for alum initiates, at least those on this board I am not sure if there is any reason for this or not. Still, each sorority has different standards for who they will allow to become an alumnae initiate - some will ONLY initiate women who have done a lot of good for the sorority, such as a member's mother who's done years of charity work for her daughter's chapter, things like that. However, Kappa is working a program to implement it in the future. I believe, at this time, almost all NPC sororities offer some form of it, except for Kappa Kappa Gamma and Alpha Epsilon Phi (and possibly SDT and Theta Phi Alpha - I don't know anything about their alum initiate policies).
