    By submitting this petition for a new chapter of Alpha Lambda Delta, it is understood there is institutional support, such as access to lists of eligible students, a dedicated chapter advisor (and replacing one that can no longer serve), clerical assistance for sending membership invitations, office space or storage for chapter records and supplies, and other tasks that go in to sustaining a successful honor society on campus. In addition to the required signature of Chapter Advisor, typical signature approvals come from the Chief Student Affairs Officer, Registrar, and President of College/University. You may substitute or add other administrative titles as necessary.
