Re: Going to the chapel...
 

You are correct, Cardinal026! Excellent work!
FYI...I don't think Jobelle ever married since we refer to her as "Miss" Jobelle and Holcombe was her maiden name.

An NPC Question for All to Guess
 

Who is credited with introducing the motion that changed the name of the Inter-Sorority Conference to the National Panhellenic Conference (N.P.C.)?

a.) Jobelle Holcombe, Founder of Chi Omega
b.) Mary Love Collins, National President of Chi Omega 1910-52
c.) Minnie Mae Prescott, Former Council member of Kappa Delta Sorority and former Chairman of NPC
d.) Sidney Gremillion Allen, Former Council member of Alpha Sigma Alpha and former Chairman of NPC

I just spent the last 30 minutes catching up on this thread. How much fun! Please keep the tirvia coming and I will try to think of some too...
For this one I am going to guess 'D'.

B

Re: An NPC Question for All to Guess
 

Welcome to Trivia, KellyB, but no D is not correct. (Sidney Allen's been around a long time, but not that long.)

And XOAlum, it's not B either. (This happened prior to MLC.)

I'm going with C (although B was my first guess too, XOAlum!) :)

Re: An NPC Question for All to Guess
 

Alas, dear Sisters...the answer is A.

"During the first decade of the 20th century, she helped write the constitution for the Inter-Sorority Conference and is credited with introducing the motion that changed the name of this body to the National Panhellenic Conference. She represented Chi Omega at NPC in 1906, serving as secretary; in 1907 serving as chairman; and in 1908."

Official Ring
 

The official ring of Chi Omega was adopted in 1905, designed by Ina Mae Boles Morton. Who is/was allowed to wear the ring?

a.) Only the founders
b.) Only the founders and members or former members of the Governing Council
c.) Current collegiate and alumnae chapter presidents
d.) Only the current National President

I'm going to guess b.) Only the founders and members or former members of the Governing Council.
I think I remember learning this during the pledge period.

Does anyone know what the ring looks like?

We have a winner! Way to go, Kelly B!
I have a picture of the ring here, but no scanner, darn it. They are beautiful -- yellow gold with the symbols engraved on it.

c.) At the 1914 "Camp Convention" held near Boulder, CO, recreational activities included a burro ride to explore the countryside and a hike over the rough terrain to a beefsteak fry
