  8. Awards What is meant by “continued service?” A member who has been active and provided outstanding and extraordinary service for three (3) or more consecutive years would be an example of “continued service.”

  9. What is meant by “beyond the local level?” “Beyond the local level” refers to members who have given outstanding and extraordinary service beyond their local chapter. The member may be active in the Province with their local collegiate chapter(s) (i.e. as an advisor or chapter Liaison). They may participate regularly in Province Day events, attend National Convention, and/or present workshops or perform at Province Days and/or National Conventions. Awards

  10. Awards How often can awards be presented to the same member? Since awards are given based on continued outstanding and extraordinary service, and since we defined continued service as three (3) or more years, it is highly recommended that individual members not receive individual awards more frequently than every three (3) years.

  12. Who approves awards? • Awards receive final approval at various levels. • Province Officers approve the Sword of Honor • Regional Officers approve the Rose of Honor, Wreath of • Achievement, Rose of Dedication and Rose of Constancy. • The NEB approves the Ring of Excellence. Awards
