"Delta Letters"

[polarpi]

The chapter I advise does Delta letters (and Alpha letters when there are new members)...

There are times I'd love to receive one too - this chapter's letters go to the Province Director and the Chapter Advisor

I'm sorry ladies..... but I am SO R&D'ing* this idea for my APO chapter and alumni association. Thank you for sharing it!

I suggested to my chapters that they send the Delta letters to all advisors - it's just adding a few more people to the emails

My chapter does Delta letters.

Since Alpha and Delta letters are done, I think that there should be Pi letters. The girls graduating should write one after Jewel Degree. The point would be to talk about what you have learned in your college years of ADPi.

Every chapter does the delta letters.

Is this something new because I am about 99.9% positive that none of my chapter sisters did this, albeit I was a Alpha at the time, but I did become a delta in March and I never was asked to do one.

Nope! It's been around for a while. I remember writing them in the mid-90s anyway.

You may have just not heard them being requested-- usually it was a quick announcement in chapter by the MEVP that could be easily overlooked-- "can I get delta letter volunteers this week?" or she may have just approached members outside chapter meeting. They've been around for quite a while, but so much happens during chapter meetings!!!!

That's true. It could have been something requested by the MEVP prior to meeting. As a Delta, I honestly only actually remembering attending 1 maybe 2 formal chapter meetings. I say that because I was initiated the last week of March, and there were only roughly, 4 at most 5 chapter meetings until the end of school. I don't think we had a meeting the last week of school (during finals). So as a Delta, I didn't participate in many formal meetings. (Brianna shrugs her shoulders). Oh well.

See, the chapter that I advise actually writes the letters on letterhead and sends it "snail mail" to the CA and PD

Emails would be great!

The other advisors on my board have mentioned that they would like to get them too but our women also write it longhand. I've tried to get them to switch to email but a lot of times they will write them right after chapter and hand them back to the EVP to mail to me and the PD.

my chapter did them via e-mail. the weeks were already divided up alphabetically by the EVP, so you knew when your turn was coming up. somehow, i always got away with never doing one :-)
