Alpha Delta Chi History

Alpha Delta Chi (ΑΔΧ) was founded in 1925 at the University of California, Los Angeles by Alma Becker, Willard Crowder Clawson, Amy Culp, Theta Slingerland Dean, Dora Marie Showalter Goertz, Evelyn Kepple Kay, Marion Wright Madden, Alice Slingerland McEachern, Ruth Umstead Ohly, and Dorthea Harvey Shultz.

Their vision was to create a place where Christian women could participate in Greek life without compromising their beliefs, build strong friendships, and most of all, they wanted to create a place which would mirror Christ's love to their community. The sorority was originally named Areta, which means virtue. The sorority's purpose is to provide fellowship for Christian college women, to strengthen the spiritual lives of its members, to be a testimony for Christ on each campus.

Delta Chapter History

    The Delta Chapter here at SDSU was originally founded in 1946, and then later re-founded in 1974 and 1996. There have been close to 200 girls that have come through delta doors since 1996. We come together with one vision "to strengthen and guide the lives of Christian women at SDSU to impact the world for Christ."
