Our Story

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.

Personal Development

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.

Symbols

Chi Omega’s symbols are a visual representation of our purposes and ideals.

Symbols and Insignia of Chi Omega

Chi Omega' s crest was adopted in 1902. Centered on the crest is the white carnation, with the C to the left and the W to the right of the flower. Above these symbols are both the skull and crossbones and the owl. Beneath the carnation are the five letters, Rho, Beta, Upsilon, Eta, Sigma. All of the emblems known and loved by Chi Omegas are surrounded by a laurel wreath, used in ancient times by the Greeks to honor scholars and heros.

Chi Omega's badge is a monogram of the Greek letter "Chi" superimposed over the greek letter "Omega" in raised gold. Set into the letter Chi are fourteen stones, always pearls or diamonds. RBUHS (Rho, Beta, Upsilon, Eta, Sigma) are inscribed across the top of the letter Omega. On the right side of the Omega, the badge bears a skull and crossbones; on the left, an owl. The badge was designed by Dr. Charles Richardson, one of the founders; he crafted our first badge from dental gold. Only initiated Chi Omegas are permitted to wear the badge or crest on jewelry or other items.

Chi Omega's pledge pin is a black enamel oval edged with gold; the Greek letters Chi and Omega are found in the center.

Chi Omega's colors are cardinal and straw as evidenced by the design of this website. Their symbolism is explained in Chi Omega's Initiation Ritual.

Chi Omega's flower is the white carnation. It was chosen for its pure, delicate whiteness and its rich, refreshing perfume.

The owl, an emblem on our Chi Omega badge, is the most recognizable symbol of Chi Omega.

Symphony

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.
