And yet another story... ADPi has a special initiation for members who are graduating that is conducted by alumnae members of the local alumnae association.
It isn't necessary to go through this ceremony to be considered an alumna, but it is very pretty, and most women regard this as their favorite ritual.
When I lived in LA, I regularly participated in this ceremony at USC with other members of the alumnae association. We'd get there early to help the ritual chair with set-up. Every year, somebody knew would find "the photo."
Years ago (I'm talking 1960's), the alumnae conducing the ceremony took a picture of themselves in full ritual regalia. The hairdos are priceless. No one seems to have the heart to throw the photo away, and the alumnae ritual chair keeps it with the Jewel Degree ritual equipment!
