Golden Lion Award
Beta Alpha is working hard to achieve this recognition by Executive Office. We have, once again, been nominated to receive this award.
Golden Lion is determined by nomination and completion of a qualitative application. A chapter is automatically nominated for Golden Lion when it earns at least 7 of 10 Programming Excellence Awards each year of the biennium. Golden Lion nominee chapters will be announced at ADPi Academy. Nominated chapters will be invited to complete a qualitative application of 5 questions to be considered for Golden Lion. An appointed team will review all Golden Lion applicants and narrow the list to the most outstanding chapters. Golden Lion is awarded only once per biennium during Grand Convention.
