Houston, TX Alumnae Association

Honored Members and Awards

Order of the Shield: This award honors those who have completed 50 years of Fraternity membership. In commemoration, these members receive a certificate and a White Violet pin as a gift from the Fraternity. These are traditionally presented at Zeta Day or a local alumnae function. The Order of the Shield Recognition Service should be held at that time. In addition, 75-year members receive a certificate and a White Violet charm from the Fraternity. 

Honor Ring: The Honor Ring is the Fraternity’s highest individual honor. It is presented to alumnae who have rendered sustained and outstanding service to ZTA. An alumna must accumulate at least 20 points, of which 50 percent must be for service at the national level. The names of eligible alumnae must be submitted to the Vice Presidents Alumnae by Jan. 1 of the Convention year. National Council then selects the recipients.

Certificate of Merit: This certificate is a national award presented at Zeta Day or other special event. Names and qualifications of those recommended for the Alumnae Certificate of Merit are presented to National Council for consideration at its fall meeting. The vote of National Council is required for approval. In order to be considered, an alumna must have been out of school for seven years and have a minimum of seven years of significant post-collegiate service.
