Chi Omega (ΧΩ)

Chi Omega is a vibrant sorority dedicated to fostering deep bonds of sisterhood, academic achievement, and active community engagement.

With a strong emphasis on leadership and personal growth, Chi Omega members are involved in various philanthropic efforts, including their national partnership with the Make-A-Wish Foundation. The chapter at UT Knoxville provides a welcoming and inclusive environment where members can thrive both academically and socially, embracing opportunities for leadership and service while enriching the campus community. Chi Omega nurtures lifelong friendships, values, and a commitment to making a positive impact, making it an integral part of the Volunteer experience.

 

Several members of Chi Omega are laying on the floor with their heads all gathered together. They are all holding up a hand sign and smiling. They are wearing yellow, red, and white to represent their sorority colors. In the blurry foreground, someone is videoing them.
