Individual Awards

Honor Ring: The Honor Ring is the highest individual honor granted by the Fraternity and is presented to alumnae who have rendered sustained and outstanding service to the Fraternity. Representing devotion to the Fraternity, the Honor Ring bears symbols dear to every Zeta Tau Alpha. A point system has been devised to assist National Council in determining recipients. To be eligible to be considered to receive the Honor Ring, an alumna must accumulate at least 20 points, of which 50 percent must be for service at the national level. Names of alumnae who have accumulated the required number of points for the ring, with offices held and terms served, must be submitted to the Vice Presidents Alumnae by Jan. 1 of the Convention year. Points are not guaranteed, and the final decision on all candidates is made by vote of National Council. National Council may vote approval for the Honor Ring by assigning points for services otherwise not listed.
