I'm a member of Kappa Alpha Psi as well as Alpha Phi Omega National Service Fraternity. I use to be of the mind frame that I did not support the concept of having a honorary member. I felt like my letters were being given away. But then I thought about it. What about the people we let in everyday who pledged, or went through MIP who do nothing for the organization. They only joined to step, stroll, and wear the letters. Brother Burning Sands, you know the Dreamer visioned more than that. So to say that honorary members bring down the org. is not true. I've seen people who have claimed to have gotten the organization beaten into them literaly and they do nothing for the org. They're always the ones trying to call others out because they did not get beat down like they did. They are also the main ones you see on the yard when it's time for a stepshow. But the ones who don't show up to the seminars and the service projects. So an honorary member who doesn't give a lot of his/her time to the org. once initiated is the same as someone who is in it for the wrong reasons.
