Chi Omega's Beloved Founders
Dr. Charles Richardson occupies a unique place in Fraternity history, a founder of a women's fraternity. As a founder of Chi Omega, he drafted our first ritual and constitution, chose the names of our officers and developed the Eleusinian mysteries as the basis of our esoteric symbolism. In his many writings, Dr. Richardson often said that founding Chi Omega was his most precious accomplishment and the one in which he had the most pride and satisfaction. ~ taken directly from Chi Omega's National Webpage (www.chiomega.com)

This thread is fascinating! I love learning things about other GLOs. Hootie, I know that Chi Omega was founded at the University of Arkansas and one of my friends from high school went there and lived in Holcombe Hall. Do you know if it was named after your Founder Joelle Holcombe or perhaps her family? Or is it coincidence?
