what makes chi omega so special?

 
 

we’re glad you asked…

On April 5, 1895, four young women, with the help of a local dentist, founded Chi Omega at the University of Arkansas. Today, Chi Omega has grown into the largest women's fraternal organization in the world with over 330,000 initiates, 178 collegiate chapters, and more than 250 alumnae chapters.

In 1922, twelve enthusiastic University of Arizona women formed a local sorority called Chi Delta Phi. Under the guidance of Mrs. G.M. Butler, they set Chi Omega as their national sorority goal. Then, on December 11, 1922, Chi Delta Phi was installed as the Zeta Beta Chapter of Chi Omega -- the 62nd official Chi O chapter in the nation!

To learn more about our organization and all of our wonderful chapters across the country, please visit our National's website at www.chiomega.com!

When I decided to go to a school so far away from home, I knew going through recruitment that I was looking for a new home away from home. The minute I stepped into Chi Omega, I knew that I had found one. The day I received my bid was so exciting and I have loved every single minute of being a Chi O since then. I am constantly surrounded with amazing, kind, driven, and truly genuine people, and have made friendships I hope will continue for the rest of my life. Chi Omega has brought so many opportunities and so much joy into my life, and I am so happy I get to spend three more years with the best sisters I could have ever asked for.

LIXO,

Emma Dalton

When I was going through recruitment, I found a strong connection to the women in Chi Omega. I found myself laughing with and opening up to their members each time I came back to speak with them. Becoming a member of Chi Omega has undoubtedly been the best part of my college experience. The women in this chapter are ambitious, compassionate and will have my back for the rest of time. They inspire me every day to be a better person! I have grown into the person I have always wanted to be through my membership in Chi Omega. These friendships will last a lifetime and for that I am eternally grateful.

LIXO,

Megan Floyd

From day one to today, I feel that Zeta Beta has the most authentic representation of the female powerhouses on campus. This house is flooded with women who speak out about the things that mean most to their hearts and lead with the most educated minds. What I love most about Chi Omega is how our dining room is constantly filled with the UA community. Over my last three years meal times have become the most sacred moments of building relationships that go far beyond a sisterhood but through the wildcat community. It’s inspiring to sit and eat a meal (shoutout to our incredible kitchen staff!) with sisters and hear about the research paper they just got published or the rally they’re headed to later. And despite all of our busy class schedules and extra curricular activities every woman still shows up to support one another. I’ve noticed that nearly any distinguished moment that occurs at UA has a Chi Omega at the very center. Opening a yearbook or reading up on historical events makes me appreciate just how passionate these women are, inspiring me to continue that legacy with grace. It’s been such a wonderful opportunity getting to observe what it truly means to be womanly always and discouraged never.

LICO (Love in Chi Omega),

Ava Ordog
