Navane, that list is awesome!! I think it's a wonderful tool for those looking to AI and for those who were AI'd.

This is going to sound like a downer, but I wanted to be honest with y'all. Kate was AI'd into ADPi because her local became a chapter of Alpha Delta Pi.

In the convention issue of our Adelphean, they list the three women who were initiated as alumnae, and why. Each of them had given decades (yes, 20+) years of service to Alpha Delta Pi, was a special friend of a member of Grand Council, or a housemother. Now, that's not to say that we never do it, but you must have a sponsor and be recommended by an alumnae member in good standing, and two others! So, if anyone is interested in Alpha Delta Pi for AI, your best bet is to get to know an ADPi first, then proceed.

I will say that I know of two women who have sponsors, and are just waiting to meet the other requirements, prior to truly beginning the process - so it's not impossible! I do think y'all should know this now rather than later, and thought it only fair to say so.

Good luck with your endeavors!!
