So your Omega is Chapter Eternal? The women were in ABC chapter but upon death become women of Omega? I like that. The Alpha (beginning) and the Omega (the end).

Yes, in Chi Omega we say upon death a member has "entered the Omega Chapter."

Do others use Omega Chapter? I don't think we invented the term?!

Alpha Gam members enter Chapter Grand, as Omega is at the University of Akron in Akron, Ohio. I rather like that we always remain members of our chapters of Initiation as well as a chapter with all other sisters upon death. Alpha Gams know what I mean
