Role of a Counselor
The Kappa Delta Pi Counselor is the official representative of the Society in a collegiate or community setting. The leadership provided by the chapter counselor/associate counselor is vital to a successful chapter. The chapter counselor:
• provides information about chapter life;
• makes recommendations for chapter programming;
• provides counsel to the officers and members in the chapter;
• assists chapter officers with program planning; and
• must be on the staff of the college or university.

Chapters are encouraged to have an associate counselor to help maintain continuity, as well as share responsibilities. The counselor and associate counselor should evaluate and capitalize on one another’s skills and strengths. The associate counselor can be a member of the institutional staff; however, it is not necessary.

KDP Headquarters acknowledges the counselor’s commitment to the Society to university administration on an annual basis.
