What is not shown in the bylaws is how we actually identify candidates who meet our criteria. This is done by sending our admission criteria to the Office of the University Registrar and requesting that the academic records of all ISU students be scanned, and that those people who meet our admission criteria be listed and sent to us. We, in turn, invite all candidates on the list who are not already members of Kappa Delta Pi. If you meet the admission criteria, but were not invited to become a member of Mu chapter, please contact either or
