To Become a Member of the Alumni

As an Upsilon Mu member who either transfers or graduates from Illinois Central College, you are automatically an alumnus of Phi Theta Kappa. However, the Lambda Alumni Association allows you to still be involved no matter where it is you go. Because Lambda serves as a support system for the active chapter, we help them with their fundraising & service efforts along with participating in fellowship events. To join, the membership fee is $10 each year, an amount that goes to the Phi Theta Kappa Alumni Transfer Scholarship. With this membership fee, you will receive a bi-monthly newsletter & can participate at your leisure in various activities sponsored by either the alumni or active chapter. All of the activities we sponsor are designed to be low-key & involvement depends entirely on you. By being a member you can help

- encourage scholastic excellence at ICC, within the community, & abroad
- raise scholarship monies for future members
- guide & mentor Upsilon Mu officers & members
- preserve the Phi Theta Kappa history for future members

If you are interested in joining or have any questions, please call Glenda Leas at (309) 694-5201.
