On the morning of November 17th, our sisters descended upon the Big Yellow House in a flurry of white to witness the official initiation of the Psi chapter's most recent new member class! After months of anticipation, and a week full of pre-initiation fun, nine ladies were welcomed into our sisterhood. After the formal ceremony, our newest members were treated to a celebration which included pictures, presents, and brunch with their new Alpha Xi family. For these newly initiated ladies, this cold Sunday morning will be one of the first of many memories they will make during their time as an AXiD. In honor of the start of their newest journey, we asked our lovely new sisters to share their reasons for choosing the double blue and gold.
Dena: On the first day of informal recruitment, I walked into the house so nervous I considered not even going, and left wishing I could stay. When my friends asked me how it went all I could say was "I literally love all of them" and that gets more and more true as my time in Alpha Xi continues! Everyone is so fun and unique and brings something different to the table, and I'm so happy I get to spend the next two and a half years with such amazing girls!
Calla: Alpha Xi has become my second home and I never thought that would be possible to find in such a big school. I've loved every minute of everything since I've joined and can't wait for what's next! There are so many opportunities given to make a difference, but also opportunities to make life long friends and find my true self. Joining Alpha Xi was one of the best decisions I've made!
Megan: I had debated joining a sorority for awhile, and was lucky to have met some amazing girls in AXiD here at OSU! I could tell from their kind and fun personalities that I was missing out on an incredible sisterhood. So I decided to join and it was great meeting new sisters and learning about the traditions that bring us together. Alpha Xi Delta helps all women realize their potential and I am sincerely grateful to be a sister! TFJ!
Mackenzie: Having the opportunity to be a part of Alpha Xi Delta is such a wonderful thing. My new member period and initiation really opened my eyes as to how lucky I am to be surrounded by so many great girls with the same values and interests as myself. I can't wait for all the relationships I will make and the fun I will have with my new sisters!
Calley: Alpha Xi is becoming such a huge and important part of my life more and more every single day and I wouldn't trade it for anything else. This fraternity has already brought out confidence in myself that I have never had before and I already know that I have met some of my best friends in the entire world. I am so happy to get involved in leadership, sisterhood, and Autism Speaks!
Katie: I never thought I would join a sorority but I just decided to go for it and AXiD felt like home. I love what we stand for and I have met some incredible girls. Initiation brought that all together and I'm just so happy to be a part of this organization.
Kelly: I immediately fell in love with the girls of AXID on my first visit to the chapter house and knew it was the right sorority for me. I loved going through the process to become an official AXID member and cannot wait for all the memories to be made with all my new sisters!! It is amaXIng! It's a little cheesy but it's the truth!
Kelani: I loved initiation. I am so happy to finally be an official AXiD and I'm excited to be a part of such a great fraternity and have so many amazing sisters that I get to do amazing things with, like support Autism Speaks!
