In late summer and early fall of 2024, Alpha Chi Omega is embarking on an oral history project, gathering unique perspectives, recollections and stories of sisters relevant to both individual chapters and the broader Alpha Chi Omega Enterprise. Partnering with PCI, Alpha Chi Omega will work to connect with as many sisters as possible through a series of postcards, emails and/or outreach calls from PCI representatives. PCI will verify the information we have on file for you, make any updates where needed, and then ask you to share your story about your time as an Alpha Chi Omega. Your story will be recorded, and the sound clip provided to Alpha Chi Omega at the conclusion of the project.
The oral history project provides Alpha Chi Omega an opportunity to connect with members, through interviews conducted by PCI, and gather stories of membership experiences before they are lost to time. Themes to be explored include sisterhood, traditions, lifelong friendships, moments in time and/or professional achievements.
Once the interviews are complete, PCI will transcribe the stories and enter them into a digital story vault owned by Alpha Chi Omega. Member stories will be curated into a hardcover book, available for purchase later in 2025 along with a few apparel and merchandise items to share your Alpha Chi Omega pride.
Please consider participating in the Oral History Project when you receive outreach later this year; your Alpha Chi Omega stories are vitally important to capturing our history. To learn more, please review our frequently asked questions.
