The U of I chapter just rechartered, and I have been invited to join! There is no OOO forum, so who else is a member?

I got invited to apply for membership. I fit all the requirements, and I applied, but I do not find out if I was selected until the 29th...wish me luck!

I'm a member of Order of Omega. I applied last year and got initiated into it. If you were invited to join, you should definitely do it because it is an honor and on my campus (I'm assuming it's like this at other schools too), the top 3% of Greeks are accepted into the society.

I'll be initiated into Order of Omega next Saturday at our Greek Recognition Formal.

I was initiated almost 25 years ago. I've always been proud to have it on my resume!

I am a member of the Pi Chi chapter at UBC - was initiated a year ago.

Good luck Josh...

Here at UNL you have to be a Junior to apply, so I'm a ways away from applying, but you can guarentee I will when I can! Seems like I prefer to fill out applications more than studying

- must be why I'm so involved

I was initiated in April into the Boston U. chapter of Order of Omega.

I am really excited because I am being initiated along with one of my pledge daughters and some of my closest friends from other sororities. I am glad I will have this chance to work with all of them.

I am in Order of Omega. All they really did on my campus was Greek Week, but it was a big honor to join.

I'm a member too!

I'm a member, also!

I'm also a member of Order of Omega - I was initiated during the fall semester of my junior year. We mainly did community service.

If you meet the basic requirements (GPA, campus involvement, etc) then definitely apply. Starlet is right in that no more than 3% of greeks on a campus can join Order of Omega, so it's quite an honor to be selected.

I'm a past president of the OOO at Columbia. It's an honor to join, though the practicality of it ranges from school to school. When you join, you might just be adding a line to your resume, or you might be joining an organization that sponsors campus unity and leads in community service. In part, it's up to the members to decide what to make of it. Also, Omega awards 71 scholarships to members who excel in leadership at their chapters, greek communities, and OOO.

I joined last fall and one of my pledge brothers and I were just elected to exec council last week, so we are excited. It is a good organization on our campus, but we usually only do Greek Week.
