As the largest women’s fraternity, Chi Omega provides countless opportunities for fun and friendship during college and beyond. As a Chi Omega, you will have fun, grow, thrive, achieve success, and flourish!

“Sincere Learning and Creditable Scholarship” is one of Chi Omega’s six purposes and has been a constant in the history of our Fraternity. Chi Omega wants our members – collegiate and alumnae - to be well rounded, educated women. The balance introduced with this purpose requires each member to be a student and a Chi Omega.

To help maintain balance between learning and activities, Chi Omega provides many tools to assist members as they reach and exceed their academic excellence. Some of the resources include:

• The Chi Omega Policy on Scholarship
• Support to reach personal academic success
• People resources through the chapters’ vice president in charge of scholarship, Scholarship Cardinal Cabinet Team, Scholarship Advisor, chapter members
• The Chi Omega Daily Planner and Membership Notebook
• The Eleusis
• Worksheets and academic tools from the ww2.chiomega.com/everyday resources
• Scholarships for collegians and alumnae sponsored by the Chi Omega Foundation

Jan Blackwell, Archivist Emeritus said, “Chi Omegas are remarkable. You are resourceful and eager to learn, anxious to share your ideas and successes. That power only comes from discipline and responsibility. The choice is entirely up to you.” The message of “personal responsibility” cannot be stated too often. It is up to you to determine the ways you manage your time and how you pursue your academic journey. Remember to choose wisely!

As Chi Omegas, it is important to remain committed to scholarship and lifelong learning. For our college years, Chi Omega recognizes that its members and new members are students first. That is why grades must be demonstrated before initiation — one must be able to be successful as a student and fulfill the expectations of membership. If one cannot make a 2.0 GPA as a full-time student while participating in Chi Omega, then it is only fair that she separate from Chi Omega to concentrate on classes. The focus on academics should not end after graduation. Chi Omega programming strives to instill in each member the love of learning.

Chi Omega places a priority on academic success and more importantly, academic challenge, for each member. Be proud of Chi Omega and exemplify the best of this wonderful organization in your thoughts, words, and actions. Be the best you can be! Accept the responsibilities of Chi Omega membership; embrace Chi Omega’s six purposes and place our values into action; and enjoy one another as Sisters and as friends.
