I also spoke of alumnae initiates who, after initiation, became chapter advisers.

Clear as mud.
It appears that we are working from different terminology. It appears that in Gamma Phi Beta that Chapter Advisers and Faculty Advisers are two separate groups, as opposed to the experience with my fraternity where Faculty Advisers are a subset of the Chapter Advisers.
So this woman could become a faculty adviser to the G Phi B chapter without being initiated and thus still not have the right to wear the badge. After being a Alumni Initiate, she could be either of the types of Advisers.
(And since chapter advisers always are G Phi B members, there are advisers who attend rituals)
Do I have the correct understanding now?
