An honorary Honorary Fellowship, Fellowship ''honoris causa'', may be granted to those who are not members of the Societyfour causes felt sufficient by the [[Board]]. Such an awardee may use the postnomial FAS, and to wear Honorary Fellow's lapel pin shown belowabove. [[Consuls]] will track the contributions of non-members in parallel with their tracking of member contributions, using the same point values. Those non-members who have achieved at least 2000 points shall be added to the next available Board [[Agenda]] as an item of New Business (not the [[Consent Calendar]]). Directors may also nominate candidates for reasons they feel compelling. If a significant portion of their contribution is not something tracked by the Fellowship system, the 2000 point minimum is waived. (Point minimum per Board Policy, June 2013) Should a candidate be declined for such honor by the Board, they must improve their score sufficiently to equal the next higher rank before they may be nominated again. (e.g.: A non-member with enough points for FAS/3 who is denied honorary fellowship may not be nominated again until his points are sufficient for FAS/2.) If nominated for untracked cause, they must make an additional untracked contribution to be nominated again. Society members are not eligible for consideration for Honorary Fellowship. Upon election, Consuls will prepare a letter of notice and a [[Certificate of Fellowship]], both indicating the rank and the former explaining the privileges appurtaining thereunto.
