I do have a question. Is it that you just do not call them honoraries, but still may have a special initiation via an alumni chapter for someone of national distinction?
The reason I asked is that our honoraries tend to be women who were interested in Delta for many years, but for whatever reason could not pledge when they were younger. And then their distinguished careers kept from from being able to later. I have shed quite a few tears upon hearing an new honorary initiate speak with passion about how they always wanted a chance to be a member and never thought they would ever get it.
Thus I am proud of the fact that we have a honorary member category.
