Omega Chi Goes National With ISame Changing to Theta Omega On May 6, Omega Chi, the young est sorority on the AC campus, became the Theta Omega chapter of Delta Zeta National Sorority. Thirty sisters and one sponsor, Mrs. Bin Smith, were pledged at the cer emony conducted by Mrs. Norman Agler, National Vice President in charge of membership. Delta Zeta Sorority is the largest national sorority with 160 college chapters. It is the second largest ■n membership with 53,000 sis ters. It is ranked fifth in national sororities. The closest chapter is the Zeta Lambda chapter at East Carolina. Delta Zeta Sorority was founded on October 24, 1902 at Miami Uni versity, Oxford, Ohio. It was the first sorority on the Miami campus. The official flower of Delta Zeta is the Killamey Rose. The colors are Old Rose and Vieux Green and the official jewel is the diamond. The object of this sorority shall be to unite its members in the bonds of sincere and lasting friend ships, to stimulate one another in the pursuit of knowledge, to promote the moral and social culture of its members, and to develope plans for guidance and unity in action; ob jects worthy of the highest aim and purpose of associated effort. The chain of Delta Zeta friendship is being widened each year through its National Philanthropic Program known as “adventures in Friend ship.” The program is divided into fields such as Gaullaudet College, Washington, D. C. which is the only college in the world devoted entirely to the needs, instruction, and training of young people who are deaf. Many Delta Zeta chapters throughout the United States are purchasing hearing aids for under privileged children. Other chapters provide audiometers and technical equipment, give scholarships to stu dents specializing in audiology and allied fields, and assit in speech clinics. Delta Zeta also contributes to the American Hearing Society for its local centers. Another field of this program is Carville, the only hospital in the United States where victims of Hansen’s disease are treated. Through the Navajo Assis tance Inc., college and alumnae chapters donate clothing for use by the Navajo Indians.
