This year, the Alpha Delta Pi Foundation awarded scholarships totaling $350,895 to 180 members for undergraduate, graduate, and continuing education.…
Alpha Delta Pi awards motivate and recognize individuals and groups in their quest for achievement. The Alpha Delta Pi award process provides individuals, chapters, house corporations, and alumnae associations clear guidelines and criteria for baseline performance, improvement, and excellence. Results producing excellent output are recognized through the award process. The goal of the awards program is to create positive momentum, celebrate successes, and reward the highest level of excellence in our sisterhood.
Collegiate awards serve to motivate and inspire all areas of chapter life: rewarding valued chapter characteristics and achievements. Chapter awards are earned by collegiate sisterhoods as a whole, not only officers, individual members, or advisors. Results are outcome-based, thereby making the awards process meaningful and transparent to all members of recipient chapters. Overall chapter performance is recognized each summer with Diamond Four Point and, in convention years, Golden Lion.
In early 2024, Grand Council unveiled the refreshed Four Points of our diamond badge: Sisterhood, Service, Character, and Knowledge. When leading with these core values, our chapters provide an outstanding membership experience to all members. Alpha Delta Pi is honored to recognize chapters that demonstrated their commitment to their sisters through achievement in academics, operations, facility management, finance, history reporting, marketing, membership experience, Panhellenic, philanthropy, and recruitment.

In 1973, at the 123rd Anniversary Convention in Atlanta, Georgia, a new tradition began when the Golden Lion Hall of Fame Award was established. This award is the highest honor a chapter can receive. As was typical of Grand President Maxine Blake’s leadership, the award was introduced with grace, dignity, and a certain amount of fanfare when costumed trumpeters processed into the banquet hall to the delight of the Convention body. The Golden Lion Hall of Fame award is achieved by meeting exceptionally high standards in whole-chapter operations across all functional areas, including recruitment and member retention, membership engagement, marketing, service to others, chapter GPA, and business operations including accounts receivable and net income.
All chapters who earned at least seven Programming Excellence Awards at ADPi Academy were nominated for Golden Lion. Nominees completed a qualitative application of five questions where they shared their chapters’ successes in Chapter Operations, Member Experience, Alumnae Engagement, Chapter Marketing, and Support of the Alpha Delta Pi Brand. A committee of experienced alumnae volunteers very carefully reviewed each application and narrowed the list to the final winners—the very best of the best.

Alpha Delta Pi is proud to recognize our outstanding collegiate chapter leaders. In June 2024, at Grand Convention in Baltimore, Maryland, the Sorority celebrated these amazing women and their accomplishments.
In our collegiate chapters, there are always women who parallel the kindred spirit and unselfish service of Dorothy Pierpont Shaw, Psi—California, Berkeley, remembered her for her ready laughter and smile, her unfailing kindness and thoughtfulness of others, and her intense loyalty in service to Alpha Delta Pi. Her life was generously and unselfishly entwined with Alpha Delta Pi. Dorothy Shaw winners strive to live out the tenets of our Creed—committing themselves not only to scholastics, but also to campus activities, service to the community, and often, internships and work. They are leaders in our Alpha Delta Pi chapters, contributing outstanding direction and guidance to fellow sisters. The Dorothy Shaw Leadership Award is the highest award bestowed upon a collegiate member.

This sister has exemplified our value of service to others through her dedication and passion for Ronald McDonald House Charities. She is known for her compassion, selflessness, and hardworking attitude. Since her first day as an Alpha Member, she regularly volunteered for the local RMHC and deepened her chapter's connection to their philanthropy efforts through numerous activities beyond the academic calendar. In fact, more than 450 participants from the campus Greek community and the local community rallied around her efforts to support a RMHC family. It is because of her efforts that her chapter raised nearly $6,500 for RMHC and accumulated 3,764 of service hours.
