In Dr. Richardson's account of the early years of Chi Omega, he explained that the magazine The Eleusis was so named because...
a.) it means "publication" in Greek
b.) it is Latin for "book"
c.) it is a city in Greece named in honor of the son of Mercury, the messenger of the gods, hence the name of Chi Omega's messenger
d.) it was Dr. Charles E. Richardson's middle name

Identify the picture shown above:
a.) an early rendering of Chi Omega's current HQ in Memphis, TN
b.) a Founders' Hall planned for University of Arkansas that was never built
c.) the Vincenheller home in Fayetteville, AR where many early Chi Omega meetings were held
d.) the Psi Chapter House on the campus of Univ. of Arkansas

Nope, surprisingly not. (The rendering DOES look quite a bit like the HQ, but this drawing wasn't discovered until after the plans for the Memphis building were drawn up in 1992.)

Yep!!! Founders' Hall was never built, due to a lack of funds; however, the Greek Theatre was later constructed on the campus.
It is freaky how similar the drawing is to the front of our HQ in Memphis, isn't it?
