Don't you have to be a college graduate to be an AI? That might be a misconception on my part, hence why I am asking the question.

That's what I thought, too.

Our code of regulations state nothing about having to graduate from college to be nominated as an AI. Only that a petition for the proposed member must be signed by the alumnae chapter contact person and a collegiate chapter president if a college chapter is within the vicinity of the alumnae chapter and then submitted to National Council or a committee if so authorized for approval.

A good example, Florence Henderson is an AI of Delta Zeta and I found no mention of her having graduated or even attended any kind of college or university. Obviously, that is an extreme example, but if we have one AI who did not attend any college/university (even though she is famous), I don't see how we could require it of other AI's.

I can't speak for other NPC's though. It might be different from group to group.
