ALL GLOs - Omega Chapters
 
I'm researching Omega chapters. Does your GLO have one? If so, where? If not, is it reserved for the deceased or simply removed from chapter naming?

I LUVZ Y'ALL!!

Our Omega chapter is at Southern Methodist University which is currently inactive.

RedRoseSAI 10-04-2004 10:21 PM

Ours was at the Chicago Conservatory. The school is no longer in existence, hence, neither is the chapter!

AUDeltaGam 10-04-2004 10:29 PM

DG's Omega chapter is at the University of Wisconsin

Alpha Sigma Phi does not use the Greek letter Omega or any combination of Greek letters ending in Omega to designate any of its chapters. It is reserved to respectfully pay tribute to deceased members of our Mystic Circle; members who enter Omega chapter are usually listed by initiating chapter and year, followed by Omega and the year of death. Example: Louis Manigault, Alpha 1845, Omega 1899.

University Of Kentucky.


That is Pi Kappa Alphas omega Chapter.


But Alpha Sigma Phi's method of using the omega chapter is a very honorable concept and i even think it is cool.

Delta Zeta had an Omega chapter at the University of Oregon, but it is currently inactive.

In case you're interested, when one of our sisters passes away, we say she enters the Flame Eternal.

RUASTgrrl 10-04-2004 11:10 PM

Our Omega chapter is Minot State College, Minot, ND , active 1945.

KSUViolet06 10-04-2004 11:11 PM

Tri Sigma doesn't use Omega in chapter designations. It's reserved for those sisters who pass on.

I don't know if this is a Tri Sigma thing or just something that the chapter at my school did, but they skipped over the Omega pledge class so to speak and use the Omega class as the class for all the sisters who have passed away.

ADPi's Omega Chapter was at Louisiana State University from 1914-1985.

bekibug 10-05-2004 02:01 AM

From the AXiD forum:

Omega Chapter, Stetson U, founded 1917.

As far as I know, still open.

I don't know if this is "official," but I know my chapter says sisters who have passed have entered Chapter Eternal.

CanadianZete 10-05-2004 07:14 AM

Zeta Psi
 
The Zeta psi's Omega chapter is located at Northwestern University, founded in 1947. It has been inactive since 1993, meaning no current Omega chapter.

Senusret I 10-05-2004 07:52 AM

APhiA's Omega chapter is for deceased Brothers.

APO's Omega chapter is at Drake University.

MysticCat 10-05-2004 09:15 AM

Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia's Omega chapter was chartered at Ohio Wesleyan University on May 24, 1922. I believe that it is currently inactive.

FYI, an earlier thread on the subject:

Omega Chapters.

Kevin 10-05-2004 09:23 AM

There is no Omega Chapter. There is, however, an Omega Society for bigtime donors.

33girl 10-05-2004 11:26 AM

Alpha Sigma Alpha
 
Our only single letter chapter is Alpha. We had a few other single letter chapters before our reorganization in 1914 but they all died out or were absorbed by other sororities.

We had our Omega Omega chapter (our double letter chapters are our oldest ones) at San Diego State but it is presently dormant.

We do not have an Omega chapter to denote deceased members or any other chapter that does so.

Buttonz 10-05-2004 11:32 AM

Sigma Delta Tau's Omega chapter was chartered April 27, 1946 at Syracuse University, Syracuse, NY

ChiOwl 10-05-2004 11:41 AM

The Omega Chapter of Chi Omega is for all of our sisters who have passed away.

Thank you for that information! I still want to encourage people to post because there are quite a few orgs represented on GC that haven't said anything.

:) Thank you everyone!!!

SapphireSphinx9 10-05-2004 01:15 PM

Phi Sigma Sigma's Omega Chapter was at the University of Missouri, Columbia, MO - Chartered in 1935

It's now an inactive chapter.

I don't think we have any special designation for deceased sisters... but I think it's a very nice gesture for all the GLO's that do!

Sigma Lambda Gamma does not use Omega in any letter combination for chapter designations, and Omega chapter is reserved for our Sorors who have passed on.

Yep the Stetson chapter is still open. I am from DeLand and I see AXiD letters on girls around town.

Theta Phis who have passed on enter the Eternal Chapter.

Speechpath 10-19-2004 09:04 PM

Pi Beta Phi does not have an Omega chapter mostly because of how we name ours (State plus greek letter in order of founding i.e. NC Alpha, NC Beta etc.) but there is an Omega province. Hope that helps!

DolphinChicaDDD 10-19-2004 09:10 PM

I had to look this up...

Tri Delta's Omega chapter is located at Stanford

OUlioness01 10-19-2004 09:28 PM

Phi Mu's Omega chapter was located at Iowa Welseyan College. I believe the chapter is now inactive.
