Alpha Psi Lambda COVID-19 Policies
The National Executive Board of Alpha Psi Lambda National, Inc. recognizes that the current environment is difficult to conduct Fraternity operations. However, it is critical that our Chapters maintain practices that protect the safety and health of our Members, Associate Members and the broader campus community. All Members and Associate Members are expected to comply with the below policies.
We highly encourage all members to wear protective masks or face coverings and practice social distancing when possible.
While there may be opportunities to conduct in-person meetings or activities (on/off campus), please recognize that if anyone feels uncomfortable it is encouraged for all activities to be conducted virtually, or for individuals to be provided the option to participate virtually.
As a reminder, members digitally signed a Covid Waiver when they completed Everfi’s GreekLifeEdu Training. Associate Members will be requested to sign and submit the Covid waiver at the start of the Membership Intake Process.
The following policies are subject to change. For specific questions or scenarios, contact us at nationaloffice@alphapsilambda.net.
