Hmmm...no, sorry...not C. (The badge is older than that.)
HINT: This former S.H. used to live in Huntsville, AL

Isn't it Kirk Bell Hassell? She was a sister from Nu Beta which is the chapter at the University of Alabama... I remember it from education because I am from bama although I am currently in the state with the most active Chi Omega chapters!!

I cannot begin to tell you-all how many Chi-Os I have known
who were pretty, scholarly, fun, good dancers, and great all-around girls.
From a great number of schools--everywhere.
Yep, Chi O is a super outfit!
But....you all know that.
Oh, I have an autographed, framed, picture of Mary Love Collins.
It proudly hangs in my den with my diplomas and brag plaques.
Neat. May you ever thrive!

No, although Kirk had Bama ties...the answer was Elizabeth Orman -- a Theta Gamma (Queens College) initiate, but a resident of Huntsville, AL.

Erik, thank you very much for the kind words. I'm envious of your signed pic of MLC, but very proud that it is in a place of honor among your treasures!

This spring, Iota Chapter at the University of Texas celebrated their Centennial. Which Chi Omega chapter is next in line to turn 100?

a.) Theta Chapter, West Virginia University
b.) Kappa Chapter, University of Nebraska
c.) Alpha Chapter, University of Washington
d.) Omega Chapter, UTopia

[xo_kathy]

Well, according to how we name chapters, it should be:

A) Theta Chapter

But maybe NutBrn is throwing us a trick question....


ETA: I didn't even read D!!!! LOL

[KellyB369]

I'm going to agree with Kathy. And I think choice "D" is funny.

Yes, yes, yes...Kathy is correct! (Me?? A trick question??!? Nevah!) Theta Chapter at WVU was founded in 1905 and they will be celebrating their Centennial April 8-10, 2005.
