Processing the Installation of New Members

NEWLY REVISED. CHANGES IN CARDS AND IN HANDLING.

Greetings.   Here are the instructions for submitting the materials for your chapter's new members. 

Remember, the following items (completed cards, completed To-Be-Mailed sheet, and one check) are sent right After the new members have been installed.  Also, we are encouraging that installation ceremonies be held earlier in the semester, if possible.  That way it is easier for chapters to disperse to the new members all their new-member materials from the Intl. Office.  Thank you.

You will notice that we have worked to condense the registration cards for new members.  The new-member registration cards are now 3 cards instead of 5. You will receive the new 3-part cards as we return new-member materials to the chapters. After receipt of the new 3-part cards, please destroy any unused 5-part cards.  Thank you.

1.      Please have the CANDIDATE fill in all of his or her personal information on the top two cards.  (It would also be a good idea for the candidate to fill in the Chapter Name and the upcoming Installation Date.)

2.      Chapter OFFICER, please complete the following:

 

Top card (“International File”) è

 

Chapter Name (fill in or double-check)

Installation Date (fill in or double-check)

Chapter Serial Number (optional)

Circle One:  Student, Faculty, or Honorary

Chapter officer or Faculty Advisor Signature

And, ensure that all information has been completed on this card.

 

Middle card (“Chapter File”) è

Chapter Name
Chapter Serial Number (optional)
Circle One:  Student, Faculty, or Honorary
Date of Election
Date of Installation
Chapter Officer or Faculty Advisor Signature
And, ensure that all information has been completed on this card.

 

Bottom card (“Information Card for Candidate”) è

The lifetime membership fee

The date that Candidates should complete and return the cards to the Chapter Officer.

Chapter Officer ensures that Candidate receives the bottom card.

 

3.     After ALL three cards have been completed by the candidates and Chapter Officer, then separate the three cards.  (1) Send the top card to the SLC International Office (with the completed To-Be-Mailed sheet, and the check for all the installations in that ceremony).  (2) Keep the middle card for your chapter’s records.  (3) Give the Candidate the bottom card for his or her personal records.

4.     Among the items that are returned to your chapter after the Intl. Office processes your new members will be a Sigma Lambda Chi Processing Record sheet. It includes the International Serial Number for each new member. We will not be returning completed cards back to the chapter anymore, so when your chapter receives the Processing Record sheet, your Chapter Officer can post the International Serial Number from the Processing Record to the members’ cards the Chapter kept.

5.     Please DESTROY all previous 5-part blank cards, and use the new 3-part cards immediately.  Thank you.
