Are you an active alumni member?

[ISUKappa]

Are you involved in the local, regional or (inter)national level?
I've been involved with the local chapter as an advisor since I graduated in 2001. I've been a member of my local Alumnae Association since 2002. I'm also a member of our online Alumnae Association.

What do you do, specifically?
I've served as Education Advisor, Marshal Advisor and currently serve as Advisory Board Chair, Chapter Council Advisor and interim House Board President. I'm also the President of our local Alumnae Association. I also serve as Webmaster for our online Alumnae Association.

Why did you choose this area of involvement?
I wanted to stay involved with my Fraternity and this was the easiest way. I would like to be more involved in the Provincial and Regional aspects in future years, but really enjoy working with the local chapter for now.

Are you also a dues paying alumni member of your GLO? If so, does that mean you pay dues only to your local alumni chapter or you pay separate local and international alumni dues to be considered an active alumna? If you are not a dues paying alumni member, why not?
Yes, I pay dues to both my local and online Alumnae Associations (though only one of those pays my per capita fee to our Headquarters). Our Fraternity requires that all Advisors be members in good standing. They can join a local Alum Association or pay their dues directly to Headquarters (which some advisors have done).

I know that AOP, DDD, DC and SC have Life Loyal programs and I'm sure there are more. If your GLO has a "Life Loyal" type program, are you a member? If not, why not?
Kappa does not have a "Life Loyal" program.

[QUOTE=ISUKappa]Are you involved in the local, regional or (inter)national level?
I am a Founding Member of My Chapter of Phi Psi and have been involved with the fraternity since that date in 1991

What do you do, specifically?
I am the Chapter Advisor for both my own Chapter (IL Zeta) and also another Chapter (IL Theta). I helped start the IL Theta Colony/Chapter. I'm on the House Corporation for both (was President of IL Zeta House Corp for 3 years). I'm the Area Alumni Director for IL/WI, I'm a dues paying member of the Chicago Alumni Association and I've been the Chairman of the Extension Committee for our Grand Arch Council over the last 4 years. Along with that, I serve on DePaul's Alumni roundtable for fraternity and sorority affairs. Also, if I'm lucky, I'll be initiated into the Order of the SC this summer at the GAC.

Why did you choose this area of involvement?
I am a firm believer that if you feel the fraternity helped you out in any way, you're obligiged to give back - either with time or money - since I've been poor for a while, time it is. Plus i enjoy dealing with the undergraduates - they keep me young and it helps me when i deal with my brothers on a national level.

Are you also a dues paying alumni member of your GLO? If so, does that mean you pay dues only to your local alumni chapter or you pay separate local and international alumni dues to be considered an active alumna? If you are not a dues paying alumni member, why not?
I pay dues to the Chicago Alumni Association. I donate to my Chapter's Chapter Scholarship Program and to the general portion of the Endowment Fund of Phi Kappa Psi. - that's how we stay life Loyal


Hope that answers your questions.
