Certificate of Merit Award for Alumnae

It is time to nominate outstanding alumnae for the Certificate of Merit (COM)!

Awarded by National Council, the COM is granted to ZTA alumnae who have made an outstanding contribution to the Fraternity over an extended period of time. Recipient recommendations can be made by the alumnae organization's President (or another officer, if the President is recommended), the District President or a member of National Council.

* Nominations are due to the District President October 1st; they can be emailed
* The candidate must have held a significant position within the Fraternity for at least 7 years; the current year does not count.
* If a candidate has served in more than one position in a year, list each position separately.
* Multiple positions within a year do not count as more than one year of service.
* Remember, there must be a minimum of seven entries for years of service. Dates must accompany these entries.
* Only the following positions are considered by National Council as officers: President, Vice President (I & II), Secretary, Treasurer and Historian-Reporter.
* Committee Chairs do not count as significant service (although we realize that many women put a great deal of effort into this).
* After listing the nominee's service, provide a brief paragraph about the candidate's special talents or efforts.
* Nominations are SECRET; do not let the candidate know she has been nominated. It will be a fun surprise at Zeta Day!
* For more information, contact your DP (mokszetas@yahoo.com).
