Participation in Activities develops us into well-rounded people.  We engage with others to develop outside interests and expose us to new and differing points of view.   By contributing in the larger world, we demonstrate that Chi Omega makes a difference in the lives of women.

This summer at Chi Omega Convention, the Chi Delta Chapter won both the award for Highest Small Chapter GPA and the Award of Excellence! We have won either the Award of Exellence or the Award of Acheivement every year that it's been given.

The Make-A-Wish Foundation is Chi Omega Fraternity's National Philanthropy. Since the start of our alliance, Chi Omegas have made a difference in many children's lives through volunteering time, talents, and dollars. The Make-A-Wish Foundation has honored Chi Omega for the incredible volunteer efforts of our members.
This year, the Chi Delta Chapter raised about $17,000 with our annual Walk-for-a-WIsh and Drawdown! We couldn't have done it without the participation and generous donations of our supportive families, friends, and Jackson community!

It all began on April 5, 1895, at the University of Arkansas when four young women, with the help of a local dentist, established the secrets and symbolism that today bind over 260,000 women. This small band of women founded Chi Omega after realizing a need for an organization that would foster both friendship and respect for the potential and inherent value of women. Over the years, Chi Omega has provided its members with unique opportunities in leadership, scholarship, and lifelong friendship - striving to provide each Sister with a commitment to personal integrity, excellence in academic and intellectual pursuits, intergenerational participation, community service, leadership opportunities and social enrichment.

Career and Personal Development prepares us for life’s work and makes us marketable regardless of the path we choose.  Sisters serve as mentors and coaches along the way.  Chi Omega promotes personal growth and teaches us to work earnestly at whatever we choose to do.

Chi Omega is FUN! Every year, over 5,000 young women across America join the largest women’s fraternity in the world for sisterhood and lifelong friendships.

Community Service means that we want to make a difference on our campuses and in our communities.  We know that giving back to others unselfishly makes the world a better place and makes us better people.   Serving and giving helps to connect us.

The Chi Omega Symphony has reflected the purposes of Chi Omega members since its composition in 1904 by Ethel Switzer Howard on the eve of her initiation into the Xi Chapter of Chi Omega at Northwestern University.

The history of the Chi Delta chapter of Chi Omega begins in the spring of 1932, when several seniors from Jackson Central High School who planned on attending Millsaps decided to form a local chapter on the campus.  After the Millsaps Committee on Social Organizations accepted the petition, the Tri Chis rented a small house near the campus that was used as a meeting place.  After five months, the Tri Chis were permitted to be recognized on campus, and they began to petition to become a formal chapter. 
Finally in March 1934, nationals granted the Tri Chis a charter and the Chi Delta Chapter of Chi Omega was installed.  Within one year, Chi Delta proved to be successful on the Millsaps campus by having the largest number of members for a sorority.
Now, the Chi Delta Chapter of Chi Omega is still playing an active role in the Millsaps and Jackson communities. With a strong 75+ member chapter, Chi Delta's are earning awards and being recognized for their dedication and committment to not only bettering themselves, but also bettering others.
