We’re back with another Family Feature!💛
This week we’re hearing from Abby, Jane, Anna, Elena, Catherine, Makenna, Helen and what Chio means to them:
Elena: My family has transformed my experience at Rhodes and in Chi O. Freshman year, I joined this big and wonderful family. They brought me out of my shell and continue to be hard-working, passionate, and hilarious role models for me! I have loved sharing this sisterhood with my little, Anna!! Here’s to many more memories!!
Jane: My chi o (mega)family line runs in every direction, so I’m not even sure how to classify our relationships: cousins? Aunt-niece? Step-siblings? Probably all of the above. But that’s the coolest thing about my family–our exact relation is largely irrelevant. We’re one big eclectic family, and I could not love these girls and all the color, chaos, laughter, and joy they’ve brought me any more!
Catherine: My favorite thing hands down about Chi O is that it brought my family together. I love each and every one of these girls so stinkin much I can’t take it! They’re some of the coolest chicks I know and have embraced my quirks with love. So grateful for Kappa Beta 💕
Helen: Being a part of megafam has been an absolute blessing. We are always here for each other and I make the best memories with them. Without Chi O I would not have the privilege of having these lovely ladies in my life.💛
Makenna: Chi O means so much to me and I am truly lucky to be a part of a family that has given me a foundation of love, support, and encouragement. Being a Kappa Beta is something I will always cherish knowing I gained sisters who help me strive to be the best version of myself.
Abby: This family is one of the greatest joys of my college experience! Since freshman year, Saanya and Ellie have been my most unconditional friends, and any day my family is all together is instantly the brightest, happiest day ever. I couldn’t love them more if I tried!
Anna: There are so many things I love about being a Chio, but my family holds a special place in my heart. Being a part of our mega family has been a defining part of my time as a Kappa Beta and I’m so grateful it brought me every single one of them!
