Chapter Sponsor Recognition & AwardsSponsor Service Pins
Alpha Chi depends on the chapter sponsor on each campus to be the primary contact for its members while they are in school. The sponsor service pins were created to publicly recognize this integral role. At five year increments, starting at year 10, sponsors are presented with service pins at national conventions. At ten years of service, sponsors are presented with a silver lapel pin to mark that anniversary. Upon fifteen years of service, a new pin is given that is topped with a service bar. At additional five-year increments, gemstones are added to that service bar until, at 30 years of service, the sponsor has a pin with a full bar studded with two sapphire stones, two emerald stones, and two diamonds.Distinguished Service Award
Alpha Chi began giving these awards in 2001 to honor the individuals whose service to the society has been the most influential. The majority of the recipients are current or very recent faculty sponsors recommended by their respective regional councils. The National Council also may consider individuals now retired but with significant past service to Alpha Chi, or others who have made important contributions to the work of the society. 2009 RecipientsExecutive Director's Award
An additional award Alpha Chi began giving in 2007 is a $500 honorarium called the Executive Director’s Award. The recipients are two sponsors chosen by the national office staff based on the knowledge we have of their dedication to their students, to the chapter, and to Alpha Chi in general. This cash award is to be used by the recipient as he or she desires; we realize it is a small compensation for service that may not always be recognized on the home campus. The most recent recipients of this award are Dr. June Hobbs and Dr. Floyd Tesmer.
