Alpha Upsilon STARS

This is a program to encourage and reward members who fully participate and commit to our chapter and DKG throughout the entire year. The “requirements” for earning the STARS pin are the things we already do; the idea is to encourage more participation in all Alpha Upsilon’s activities as well as reach out for the stars by expanding our universe and becoming more involved in it.
