But we don't normally refer to these members as honoraries to make any distinction between them and us. I also know that our honorary members are encouraged to get involved and stay involved just like the rest of us. So when we ask them to join, we actually expect them to join their nearest alumni chapter and get involved. The nearest alumni chapter or chapters in their residential area are also usually present at their induction.
We specifically recognize honorary members and accord them special honor as such. However, there are certain priviledges and rights that they do not have.
