[RTZTAS]

I'm not sure what the ZTA policy is, but my guess is that married women are allowed to become members of collegiate chapters. I believe that if an initiated wants to request alumna status (which releases her further financial obligations to the chapter just like if she graduated), getting married is one of the criteria that would allow her to qualify. My experience, as a married person (4 years after graduation), is that married women typically have different priorities and interests than unmarried women, but that of course is not a rule. A collegiate chapter benefits by keeping as many dues-paying members on their roll as possible, but I'm not sure whether there any issues that the national organization considers. I can tell you that a good friend at church who is in her late fifties told me that whe was living in the Alpha Gam house and had to get special permission from a national officer to live in the house after she was married. I believe her husband had to go overseas or something and she was still in school. On the other hand many married women are initiated into ZTA as special initiates, but these women have usually graduated from college many years ago.
