The bond its sisters hold will be with them during their college years and throughout their lives. acaDeMics: GPA New Member Initiation Requirement: 2.5 GPA Active Membership Requirement: 2.5 Alpha Chi Omega was founded on October 15, 1885, at dePauw University in Greencastle, Indiana. Professor James Hamilton Howe, dean of the Music School, invited seven young women to attend a meeting for the purpose of forming a society, and Alpha Chi Omega was born. The founders chose “Alpha,” the first letter of the Greek alphabet, because they were the first fraternity in the School of Music. They thought they also might be the last such fraternity, therefore “Omega,” the last letter of the Greek alphabet, seemed appropriate. “Chi,” meaning “and,” brings the name to mean “The first and the last.” Alpha Chi Omega’s colors, scarlet red and olive green, were chosen to commemorate the fraternity’s autumn founding. The opening motto, “Together, let us seek the heights,” exemplifies their unity and passion for exceeding excellence. The Epsilon Tau chapter of Alpha Chi Omega is dedicated to Virginia Tech and the surrounding community. Its sisters are involved in organizations such as club sports, community service organizations, and professional clubs. Alpha Chi Omega takes great pride in their philanthropy, supporting victims and survivors of domestic violence. Each year, Alpha Chi holds Mock Rock to raise money for the Women’s Center of the New River Valley and Alpha Chi Omega Foundation. Sisters visit the Women’s Center shelter every year to help families who have been abused and are in need of positive support. Alpha Chi Omega recently received the Academy of Excellence Award as well as Outstanding Philanthropic Participation. From socials to volunteering, date parties to tailgates, formals to philanthropy events, the sisterhood of Alpha Chi continues to grow strong.
ALPhA dELTA PI exPenses: New Member, First Semester dues: $769 Fall Semester dues: $443 Spring Semester dues: $351 On May 15, 1851, at Wesleyan Female College in Macon, Georgia, six young women desiring to enhance themselves mentally, morally, and socially, came together and founded Alpha delta Pi, the first secret society for college women. The Eta Pi chapter was chartered at Virginia Tech on April 21, 1990. Each year it contributes to AdPi’s international philanthropy, the Ronald Mcdonald House, through a week-long event known as Safari Hunt. This past year, over $4,000 was raised to benefit the Ronald Mcdonald House in Roanoke, Virginia. The Eta Pi chapter has received much national and local recognition for strengths and accomplishments. Alpha delta Pi has been recognized by the Greek community for Best Sisterhood, Highest GPA, and has also received the Panhellenic Cup of Excellence Award, the most prestigious award a chapter can receive from Panhellenic Council at Virginia Tech. Nationally, it has been recognized with the Excellence Award, given to chapters that show outstanding accomplishments with leadership, member education, finance, and campus involvement. It is currently striving to become a Golden Lion Hall of Fame chapter, the most prestigious national award for Alpha delta Pi chapters. Alpha delta Pi’s mascot is Alphie the lion, and its flower is a Woodland Violet. The official badge consists of a black enamel diamond displaying clasped hands, two stars, and its Greek letters. Its open motto, “We live for each other,” truly displays the founding principles of Alpha delta Pi, with which come the never-ending feelings of love, friendship, and sisterhood that will continue to grow forever. Alpha, delta, Pi: What do these three words mean to you? To thousands of women internationally, they mean the beginning of something new, the opportunity for lifechanging experiences, and the relationships which have changed their lives forever. acaDeMics: GPA New Member Initiation Requirement: 2.6 GPA Active Membership Requirement: 2.6 PHC ADP Nickname: aDPi National Founding Date: May 15, 1851 National Website: www.alphadeltapi.org National Chapters: 134+ Chapter Name: eta Pi Virginia Tech Chartering Date: april 21, 1990 Local Website: www.adpivirginiatech.com Motto: “we live for each other” Active Members: 149 Chapter House: yes On/Off Campus: on Housing Requirements: n/a Philanthropy: safari Hunt Famous Members: Michelle Pfeiffer emily Proctor Deana carter Kathy bates Jean smart Portico 2009-2010 83
