Alpha Xi Chapter (Founded 3 March 1991) is located at Radford University in Radford, Virginia. The Alpha Xi Chapter is a member of the Dominion Region. The chapter currently has 48 active members and will soon be taking a new initiate class (Beta Lambda).
Contents
Chapter History
Founding
The Alpha Xi chapter was founded on Sunday evening, March 3, 1991 in Heth Lounge B.
Early Years
Members of the Alpha Xi chapter helped induct the founding members of the Alpha Rho Chapter chapter at Virginia Tech on November 3, 1991.
Mat Panyik of the Gamma Class served our first National position as what was known then as a Chapter Consultant and now as a Regional Consultant. The Chapter Service Key has been awarded to two of our members, Jennifer Cook in the spring of 1994 and Jane Allison Ludwing in the spring of 1996. Receiving the Chapter Service Key is a great honor it recognizes an individual Brother for providing outstanding service to the Fraternity.
In recent years Mr. Gregory Humble, President of Alpha Xi during the Fall of 2000 and the Spring of 2001 started a Radford University Foundation Scholarship. We are working hard to put the scholarship into use. With much assistance from Mr. Humble himself, and recent initiate classes, the Chi's, Omega's, and Alpha Gamma's, we are looking forward to seeing a dream become reality.
The Active Chapter
Colors and Mascot
The Alpha Xi Chapter's official colors are red and white. Our mascot is the Eagle for it's representation of beauty, grace, and the respect it demands.
