Honorary members

Nat. Const. art. VI, § 5.18.
Honorary membership is the highest honor which can be conferred by a Chapter. In order to preserve the integrity of this membership, Chapters should consider other methods of recognition for those providing outstanding service and support. Honorary members of the Fraternity shall possess the same qualifications as active or associate members except that they shall not necessarily be regularly enrolled in the college or university where the chapter is located nor possess any qualifications as musicians. They shall have performed outstanding service for the college or university band or Fraternity. Undergraduates are ineligible for this recognition.
Below are fellow Owls, educators, and musicians who have gone above and beyond for the chapter, as well as for the ensembles and communities we serve.
