New Member Ice Cream Social!

Last week, our New Members got together with NM15  for an ice cream social! 

Alë Gonzalez planned the event for the new members to get to know more sisters. The event consisted of an ice cream and topping bar as well as a funny slideshow in which sisters got to show off their goofy sides and open up about what they like to do in their free time.

Overall, the event was a lot of fun and a great way for our Chapter to bond!

Welcome Home NM'16!

Yesterday, we welcomed home NM '16 to Alpha Chi Omega @ Florida State University!!!!! Congrats Savannah Schaler, VP Recruitment, Mckayla Michaud, VP CRIC and the ladies of AXΩ on an amazing week. 281 strong!! 

New Member class 2016!

Spring 2016 New Members!

We can't wait for our spring new members, arriving on Thursday! Thanks Savannah, McKayla and their committees for working hard! 

Senior Spotlight

This weeks senior spotlight is on Heidi Thomas! Heidi has worked so hard these past few months pairing new members with older sisters as mystagogues. All of her hard work paid off last Sunday during the big/little reveal. 

This spring, Heidi will be graduating with a degrees in Retail Merchandising and Product Development. Heidi worked for SPANX in Atlanta over the summer; she meet two other #AXO interns there! After graduation she will be applying for a flight attendant position, but Heidi's long-term career goals include becoming a buyer or visual merchandise coordinator for a large fashion company.

Senior Spotlight

On behalf of all the ladies of the Beta Eta Chapter of Alpha Chi Omega, a big thank you goes out to senior Jessica Botterbusch for all her hard work during 2015 Fall Recruitment! 

As VP Recruitment, Jessica organized an entire week of pre-recruitment festivities and coordinated recruitment with Panhellenic standards while maintaing the character and values unique to our Chapter.

Jessica did an outstanding job leading the chapter in everything from fun games and sisterhood bonding to "stairs" and the technicalities of each party.  Our success during this recruitment season is, in large-part, due to Jessica's efforts and creativity.  

Thank you so much, Jess. We love you!

A special thanks goes out to Jessica's assistant, Savannah Schaler, and Alpha Chi President, Alex Schaler. Without these amazing sisters, 2015 Fall Recruitment would not have been the same.

Congratulations, Beta Eta, on an incredible new member class!
