No, breathes, you're correct. The dentist who helped found Chi Omega drew inspiration from the Eleusinian Mysteries. The names of their officers are taken from the rituals. A quick google search provides a wealth of information, if anyone is interested in knowing EVERYTHING about their entire organization's history after being a member for a year or so.
