Requesting Initiation
Why do we request permission to initiate (besides because it is required)? Is this necessary?
Here is the applicable Code:
Code VI-12. Official Authorization Required to Initiate. No Chapter or any other group now authorized or to be authorized to perform initiations, shall be free to proceed with an initiation, even if in all other respects it is fully authorized, unless first it shall have obtained from the Office of Administration a written or telegraphic Authorization to Initiate bearing the signature of the Executive Vice President or the ranking officer in the Office of Administration and attesting to the fact that the candidate’s General Fraternity Associate Member and Initiation Fees have been received by the Office of Administration.[/font]
