Choosing an Alumni Association Name
Previously, all alumni association received a Greek designated name, such as Alpha of Texas, from the Phi Theta Kappa Headquarters. Effective January 1, 1992, each new association has the privilege of recommending its own designation. For example, the alumni association servicing the multi-campus Miami-Dade Community College has chosen the title “Dade County Alumni Association”. Other possibilities include the “Omega Omicron Alumni Association” which would serve the Omega Omicron Chapter of Phi Theta Kappa at Cleveland State Community College, or the Texas Tech Alumni Association of Phi Theta Kappa, which would be located at Texas Tech University. Many alumni associations simply refer to themselves as “Phi Theta Kappa Alumni Association of ....” and fill in the name of their affiliated institution or organization. Headquarters must approve the name selected. Region-based alumni associations are traditionally named “---. Region Alumni Association of Phi Theta Kappa.”
