Why I went XO: I went Chi O because the people I met were very different from each other. I loved how each girl had a different academic drive and outlook on the world.

I am grateful that I went XO because I am consistently happy and found plenty of role models that I look up to.

Why I went XO: As a transfer affiliate and an out of state member, the transition to UNC was a breeze because of Chi O. Each and every girl had genuine, goofy conversations with me and went out of their way to make me feel at home. I didn’t feel like anyone was faking their personality to try and appeal to me, and I didn’t feel like I had to fake my personality either.

Favorite XO Event: Bid Day
Why I went XO: Going into rush, I was looking for a sorority that would push me out of my comfort zone and help me become a better leader, student, and friend. I was drawn to Chi O’s bright community. My experiences with Chi O during recruitment were energizing, and welcoming. I left every conversation with the biggest smile on my face, no matter if we had talked about getting involved on campus or funny stories from the summer. I could tell that each Chi O I talked to truly cared, even after long days of meeting tons of girls.

Why I went XO: Going through rush was very outside of my comfort zone, but every time I talked to girls at Chi O I felt seen and cared for. They made the scary process exciting, and I could not have felt more welcomed. Chi O has been a place where I have not only been supported, but also challenged and pushed to be a better version of myself. I wanted to find a place at UNC where I could grow and break out of my shell, and Chi O has done exactly that.
