Chi Omega Locally--Chi Gamma

Originally a local sorority called Alpha Nu Sigma, the Chi Gamma chapter of Chi Omega was chartered on December 29, 1923. We are currently the oldest of the sororities on campus, though not the oldest of all the Greek houses.

The chapter house, located at 300 Fifth Street, currently houses 17 girls and has undergone many changes since the chapter was chartered.

The Chi Gamma chapter currently has 40 members, 26 actives and 14 new members. With a chapter total of 55, we are always striving to reach that number.
