MESSAGE
FROM THE PRESIDENT:
Welcome!
Alpha Chi Omega is a Greek women's organization offering lifetime opportunties for friendship, leadership, scholarship, and service. Shortly after joining Pi chapter in the fall of my freshman year, I was bombarded with seventy friend requests on facebook and the memory on my phone was becoming full with text messages from older members. Entering college is a challenging and rewarding time and I would not have made the most of it without Alpha Chi Omega. The semester flew by while I took my first midterms, spent my first holidays away from my family, and enjoyed all college has to offer. I felt assured knowing I'd always have a place to call home and enjoy the company of my sisters. I took on leadership roles in the chapter and prepared to move into the chapter house the following spring. Throughout the past six semesters I have grown and developed into the person I am today. I feel confident in the leadership and scholarship skills I have learned from my sisters and the lifetiem friendships I have developed. My membership in Alpha Chi Omega has supported and inspired me through the good times and the bad and I am so proud of this amazing group of women.
