Advisors are responsible for requiring a collegiate chapter to follow the Chapter Constitution, policies and procedures, chapter bylaws and stading rules, university regulations and local, state, provincial and federal laws. Advisors do not govern the chapter nor dictate to the members or officers what they should do.

Advisors work with collegians as members of a team to achieve the high standards of each individual organizaiton. The advisor's role is to affirm and reinforce the positive, to guide the chapter in correcting the negative and to evaluate the difference.

The opportunity to work as an advisor is a special and worthwhile way to honor the obligation of lifetime membership. The position is challenging, interesting, stimulating, ever-changing, rewarding and fun. It expands the scope of your chapter involvement and dedication. It is a wonderful way to say "thank you" to the men or women who were chapter advisors when you were an undergraduate member.

The collegiate chapter advisor is the component that provides continuity, guards the organizations heritage, refines the present and inspires the future.
