Our Proud History
A
lpha Omega's historical beginnings trace back all the way to 1925 when
a group of young women petitioned Delta Gamma for the establishment
of a chapter at the University of Arkansas. On October 11, 1930, their dreams
came true and Alpha Omega was installed as Delta Gamma's 45th chapter.
Alpha Omega's proud history is best remembered as consistent academic
achievement, leadership on campus and a focus on community service. With
more than 1,300 initiates, Alpha Omega chapter has nurtured and sustained
women during some of the most formative years of their lives, cultivating
lasting friendships in the process. As alumnae, we can trace many of our best
college memories back to our Delta Gamma experience.
More than ever, sororities play a significant role in the development of
young women, and this growth is crucial in today's competitive world. In
addition to the standards taught by our sisterhood, we acquired valuable
assets, which include leadership skills, organizational skills, social skills,
teamwork and character. Oftentimes, these traits have been integral to our
personal success and helped make us the women we are today.
We have the opportunity to re-establish our legacy at the University
of Arkansas this fall. To best prepare our newest members for success,
we must offer them a home that is a safe haven for our sisterhood in a
competitive facility on campus. In order to attract and retain quality new
members, and to help Delta Gamma regain a prominent position within the
Greek community, we must make an investment in our future.
We call upon you to remember the opportunity afforded by the sisters
before you and ask you to help us ensure the Delta Gamma experience is
available for future generations of young sisters at Arkansas. Join us as we
build a strong foundation for Alpha Omega chapter for a new era dedicated
to sisterhood, leadership, scholarship, philanthropy and community.
