Who much time does chapter membership take?
The time commitment varies from chapter to chapter. The first semester is generally a weekly meeting as your student goes through the chapter’s member education program. These programs last from 3 days to an entire semester, but the majority of the chapter new member programs are 6-8 weeks. The time spent in this program will give your student the opportunity to develop their leadership and time management skills, learn about the history of the organization, develop friendships, and allow them to become involved with other organizations. After initiation as a full member of the chapter, expectations will vary. Each chapter has a weekly chapter meeting and other required events including initiation, recruitment, and philanthropies throughout the year. Events are planned well in advance. The more your student puts in to the chapter, the more they will get out of being a member.
