I asked on FB. I wanted to know why they picked those letters since unlike most chapters, their letters don't match their sub-motto. No to your second question. Phi Chi at Univ of Chicago was named for Peg Crawford (one of my favorite PIPs) because she was instrumental in getting AOII chosen as the first NPC to colonize that campus. There are many other chapters who were named after influential alumnae, not just International Presidents (Auburn is another example), or even other collegiate chapters that assisted in colonization (ex. Kappa at Randolph-Macon helped colonize the chapter at Southern Methodist so the women at Southern Methodist named their chapter Nu Kappa in honor of Kappa. Both are now inactive.)
