Alum Initiate "Chapter" for Alpha Phi
Like many Greek groups Alpha Phi has an Alum Initiate program, whereby an unaffiliated woman who has made significant contributions to Alpha Phi may be asked to join as an Alum Initiate. Women who join in this manner become members of the "Alpha Lambda" chapter.
There is some significance to this chapter designation, but I cannot remember what it is off hand.
It is of note, however, because, besides the "Alpha" chapter (our first, which was founded at Syracuse University in 1872), there is no other chapter whose name begins with "Alpha."
