Sigma Alpha, is to be an associate member of Michigan State Universities Panhellenic Council starting in Fall of 2013.
The By-Laws state that an associate member acts as every other chapter, although they may not vote on matters such as expansion. They usually do not participate in formal recruitment.
Chapters such as Sigma Delta Tau at MSU are also considered an associated member and only are involved in the first day of formal recruitment, Spirit Day, then followed by open bidding.
MSU's sigma alpha will be only the eighth chapter out of 56 nationally to be considered part of their Universities Panhellenic Council, according to their national website.
The Panhellenic Council has not currently began the formal process for Sigma Alpha to become part, but the conversational portion is complete and there will now be an open conversational meeting and procedural vote to proceed with their membership.
