Center for Fraternity & Sorority Life

Alpha Chi Omega is an organization about you: unique, talented, genuine women choosing fun and meaningful way to enhance your college experience and building lifelong bonds that extend long into your alumnae years.

It's about strength in numbers through the 220,000 real, strong women who stand by your side, cheer you on and lead you to a lifetime of growth and connection. It’s about wearing the lyre badge with pride during a Ritual ceremony, volunteering at a women’s shelter, or networking with sisters across the country to land your dream job. It’s about the values you share with your sisters– wisdom, devotion, and achievement – as you celebrate and support each other. Alpha Chi Omega is about empowering you to live as your true self, to reach your potential, and to be the real, strong woman you were meant to be.

Alpha Chi Omega promotes educational and prevention efforts to eliminate domestic violence by supporting programs designed to understand the problem, assist and protect the victims, and work for the well-being of all victims of domestic violence. 

Locally, we support CARDV (Center Against Rape and Domestic Violence) with three major philanthropy events throughout the year. Last year alone we worked with the community and other greek organizations to raise over $9000 dollars and many non-monetary donations for their center.

Chi Chapter hosts our biggest philanthropy event Diamond Days each spring. This is a large softball tournament that allows other groups on campus to compete and raise money for CARDV. Each team is coached by two members in the sorority. During the week there are also other smaller events including tabling to raise as much money for CARDV as possible. 

In the fall, we host Carry The Weight which is a walk from our house to the Memorial Union where groups on campus come together and gather supplies for CARDV. This ends in a speech from a CARDV representative about the importance of domestic violence awareness and assisting victims. During winter term, we host Healthy Relationships Week, a tabling event at our house where we collect donations and teach others in our community about abuse and domestic violence in hopes of spreading more awareness about this topic.
