Trying to get off the dreaded topic... Who are some of the famous Chi O alum? I am a member of another group and am always curious to see who is famous that was greek.

Hey Karen!

Great idea to move on! I think it is a popular idea all around! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif

Here are a few famous ChiOs that I know of:

Lucy Liu (Eta)- actress
Sela Ward (Nu Beta)- actress
Natalie Allen (Epsilon Delta)- CNN anchor

Anyone else know any?

Go Chi-O!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

An interesting topic!
A few more of out alumni include:
Joyce DeWitt(Phi Epsilon)from Three's company
Harper Lee (Nu Beta) author of To Kill a Mockingbird
Pat Head Summit (Xi Zeta) Coach of UT's lady vols basketball team
I've heard that Cybil Shepard and Lauren Hutton are also Chi Omegas but I don't know if that's true or not.

More famous Chi Omegas:

Joanne Woodward - film actress/wife of Paul Newman
Alice Sheets Marriott - co-founder of Marriott
Katherine Grant Crosby
Lee Merriwether - former Miss America/"Catwoman" on TV's Batman
Pat Schroeder - Minnesota politician

I'll come back with more!

Thanks! Sometimes you find the most intersting people were greek ya know?

hey, I think I know one.
Heather Locklear-- did I spell that right?
everyone thinks that she's not because she posed for playboy, but she is an alum, they can do that!

Hey everyone! I know some of these are repeats (even of ones I already posted) but I just cut and paste them. Enjoy!

Cybill Shepard - Actress ("Cybill", "Moonlighting")

Martha Layne Collins - Former Governor of Kentucky

Mary Ann Mobley - Former "Miss America" and television actress

Sylvia Hitchcock - Former "Miss Universe"

Lee Meriweather - Former Miss America

Lauren Hutton - Model (in J.Crew)

Becky Smith- Miss Nebraska 1999

I found out about her when I was surfing the web and checking out different Chi Omega websites.... I thought that the similarities were so funny!!

Look at her picture, for instance...

I know that I will regret this, but what does the previous post have to do with anything? The last name Smith is fairly common, so is the first name Becky or REbecca. Are we to assume that this is what you "Becky Smith" look like? I started this to get off your "incident" and would appreciate it if at least one forum on this board did not boil down to your case. Now, before you get preachy on me, I am not a Chi Omega nor do I live in Texas. Quite frankly, I wish all this crap would go away until the trial is over and everything is a matter of public record.

Does anyone know if any of the famous gals above (or even any others) are southern? I'm a bit partial of course, but just curious http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

Joanne Woodward - film actress/wife of Paul Newman is southern. She went to LSU (Phi Gamma).

What do you get when you cross and Alpha Omicron Pi and a Sigma Phi Epsilon? A beautiful Chi Omega!!!

I thought that I had seen somewhere that Heather Locklear was a member. Is she, or is it just a rumor? The other post says that she isn't or maybe was a pledge. Does anyone know for sure?

Jordan, your chapter has a nice webpage http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

I always wondered if those ladies were XOs.
