I think you misread above. She says she did not belong.

I believe Goldie pledged AXO but was not initiated.

I went to U of Md, and would have known is Goldie Hawn had pledge AXO- she did not.
I know that AXO did not have exclusionary clauses at that time because my friend and sister's mom was an AXO in the mid-late 60's and they are Japanese-American.

I always heard that Connie Chung had been in Tri-delt- but it was never really confirmed.

Connie has become a much more involved Maryland alum in the last few years and I was introduced to her about a year ago- but didn't think to ask if she had been in a chapter or not.

From what I have heard she pledged the Beta Pi chapter at Washington College but was not initiated

RE: Goldie Hawn

I'm pretty sure Goldie went to American University in DC. I've heard her say in numerous interviews on TV that she went there but didn't graduate. Wikipedia confirms that statement (although I KNOW Wikipedia is not always correct--don't flame please!).

Yea thinking about this morning it was the Beta Rho chapter (American) not the Beta Pi one.

Apparently, Connie Chung is really embarrassed to have gone to Maryland!

Interesting, since that should be so low on her list of things to be embarrassed about.

This is no longer true. There is a clip of here from the David Letterman show where he asked here where she went to school and she sort of mock-whispered Maryland. I am sure that this is where people got this idea and while I have never heard her explain it, she seems to have come around.

Since then I believe that she was approached by the University and has since become an involved and pround alum. She attends events both here in NYC and goes to College Park for major events as well, I think she was inducted into our Alumni Hall of Fame and I know she goes to the major gala every year, I believe she was emcee of it a few years back.

As I said in my previous post I had the pleasure of meeting her at a Maryland Alumni event last year, she was a panel moderator for a large event here in NYC and was great. She looks FANTASTIC in person for a woman of her age.

As far as I know Connie Chung is not a Tri-Delta.

Well, there have been 23 posts so apparently someone cares. Just because you don't care doesn't mean it isn't a topic worthy of discussion.

There are plenty of other threads to read, so why don't you just move along?
