At Alpha Chi Omega, sisterhood is fostered early on and lasts beyond our time at Cornell. During new member period, the newest pledge class is encouraged to participate in weekly activities and sisterhood bonding such as philanthropy events, an annual sleepover, ice skating, snow tubing, and much more to get to know each other and the rest of the house. At the end of new member period, each new member is matched with a big sister and is welcomed into the lineage with a week full of gifts and activities before the big sisters reveal themselves! Our lineages at Alpha Chi Omega are particularly strong, and we continue to stay in touch with our bigs, big bigs, and beyond.
