A letter from Recruitment
Hello everyone!! My name is Chloe Wieck, and I am proud to serve as Alpha Chi Omega’s Vice President of Recruitment! I’m counting down the days and looking forward to meeting every one of you. Our home is filled with women who consistently uplift each other, care about one another, and empower each other every day and I can’t wait for you to get the opportunity to meet the real, strong women of Alpha Chi. I can speak on everyone’s behalf that we are so excited for you to see those connections amongst our members!
The past two years of being an Alpha Chi Omega has shaped me into a confident woman, a respected leader, and most importantly, a sister to girls I could never forget. Xi Chapter provides me with life-long friendships, volunteer opportunities, and chances to excel in my academics. We’ve collectively conquered an unimaginable amount of uncertainties within the past year and a half, but I am so privileged to say that I have had the women of AXO by my side to support me.
Recruitment is undoubtedly a long and tiring process. You’ll meet an abundance of great women in different chapters on campus, but as Alpha Chi’s VP of Recruitment, I hope to make your experience as easy and rewarding as possible for you. I remember the anxiety and overwhelming amount of emotions I felt going through formal recruitment. I hope the phrase “trust the process” will ease some of the stress you might be feeling. Let this be an opportunity for you to focus on your true self and your future goals. By the end of the week, you will have found your home and where you are meant to be. As we open our doors to you, we will show you what it means to be an Alpha Chi Omega and why we choose to call this place our home away from home.
I cannot wait for all of you to be able to step through our doors at 716 N. 16th Street and experience the sisterhood of Alpha Chi Omega, as I once did. I will forever cherish the feeling of being inside AXO for the first several times during recruitment week. Remember to stay positive throughout this whole experience, show your true colors, and find what you are looking for in a sorority. If you take anything from this letter, I personally want to remind you that going Greek at UNL has so much to offer, and I would highly recommend it. Alpha Chi Omega has opened so many doors and friendships to our members, and we can not wait to bring the next class of Alpha Chi’s into our house to see what they accomplish.
All my best,
Chloe Wieck
VP NEW MEMBER EDUCATION
Hi everyone! My name is Kalen Samples and I am the Vice President of New Member Education for Alpha Chi Omega-Xi Chapter. The New Member Educator facilitates weekly meetings in order to share the history of Alpha Chi Omega and create connections to our founding that develop our new members into Real, Strong Women. The New Member Educator also creates sisterhood-enhancing activities to create a strong bond between all new members through things like All-House Takeover and Big/Little.
I personally have experienced the rush of fun that is being a new member, the changes that come with it, and all of the love and experiences that Alpha Chi Omega has to offer. My New Member Educator from my own freshman year is the reason I joined Alpha Chi Omega, and ultimately, the reason I knew I would run for the New Member Educator position. I am a senior who has led on the Executive Board for three consecutive years. Freshman year, I was Vice President of Public Relations and Marketing, and one of the only freshmen to be on the Executive Board in Alpha Chi Omega history. Sophomore year, I was Chapter President. For my last year at Alpha Chi Omega, I wanted to take all of my experience and knowledge to make an impact on the new member class, teach our history and bond them to the sisterhood that I know to be so incredibly unique and loving. Our five values of Financial Responsibility, Character, Leadership Ability, Academic Interest and Personal Development offer an endless amount of opportunities that push our members to achieve success and be the best version of themselves. It is my mission that every new member that walks into our beautiful brick house feels that it is their home, and to feel the support and sisterhood from the opening of their bid card through their graduation, as I have.
Activities:
Big Little Week: Find your Alpha Chi Omega family by connecting with upperclassmen
Guardian Angel Program: Connect with upperclassmen in the same major for academic success aid
Pearl Sis Mentor: Meet upperclassmen to help you dive into our sisterhood
All-house Takeover: bond with your member class for a night you will never forget
