Are there many NIC/IFC or similar fraternities that have Alumni Initiation, at least as it is found in NPC sororities? I know many fraternities have honorary initiations (HI?), but to me that's not really the same thing. (Although I know some NPCers would like to see AI function more like HI.)
HI is different from AI, at least in practice, because (in my experience, at least) HI
always begins with a chapter or national office that desires to honor someone who has assisted the chapter/fraternity in significant ways or who otherwise is perceived to exemplify the best that the fraternity stands for. (There can, of course, also be the factor that the honoree is a person of some celebrity who could bring distinction to the fraternity's "Famous Member" list.) There just doesn't seem to be any "pursuing" HI. Again, though, I'm basing this on my own experience and on what I've seen.
