I believe that "honorary initiatiation" in a fraternity is essentially the same thing as NPC AI. I'm aware of a few men who have been honorary initiates of fraternities (usually they're famous or closely related to big shots in the fraternity) and they go through ritual and are afforded full rights of the brotherhood. This could be different for other groups, but as far as I've heard, all honorary fraternity initiates are considered members and wear the letters, badge and crest.
Please correct me if I'm wrong or if your group has a different kind of honorary initiate.
