A Letter From Our President
On behalf of Chi Omega Nu Beta, welcome! My name is Kennedy Bowlin, and I am honored to serve as our current Chapter President at the University of Alabama. Here on our website, you can find a small glimpse into the lives of our chapter members and all that Chi Omega has to offer!
We are a chapter that does life together. Through the good and bad, the ups and downs, these women have shaped me into the person I’ve always wanted to be. I am continually impressed by the women in our chapter and challenged by each of them to be the best version of myself. There is truly nothing that a Chi Omega sister won’t help you achieve—or cheer you on when you do.
The Nu Beta chapter is built on leadership, academics, philanthropy, and sisterhood—values that guide us in everything we do. Our chapter is filled with talented women who are deeply invested in Chi Omega, the University of Alabama, and the Tuscaloosa community. Our members are not only a part of but also leaders of some of the most prestigious organizations on campus, including the Blackburn Institute, Capstone Men and Women, the Anderson Society, XXXI Women’s Honorary, and many more. Wherever you go on campus and whoever you aspire to be, you’ll find Chi Omegas leading and supporting you every step of the way.
Undoubtedly, the relationships I have with these women is what I cherish the most. Coming to the University of Alabama, I never expected to find the community of love and encouragement that has met me at the doors of Chi Omega. These relationships have blessed me with a true sisterhood, for which I am incredibly thankful. What makes Chi Omega so special is the wide range of well-rounded, authentic, and supportive women coming together within one sisterhood. Chi Omega is a place that celebrates small memories and big milestones, creating friendships that last far beyond our college years.
Chi Omega is more than just an organization—it’s a lifelong home, and I’m so grateful to be a part of it. I hope you enjoy getting to know the sisterhood that means so much to us.
XOXO,
Kennedy Bowlin

Chi Omega Symphony
To live constantly above snobbery of word or deed; to place scholarship before social obligations and character before appearances; to be in the best sense, democratic rather than “exclusive”, and lovable rather than “popular”; to work earnestly, to speak kindly, to act sincerely, to choose thoughtfully that course which occasion and conscience demand; to be womanly always; to be discouraged never; in a word, to be loyal under any and all circumstances to my Fraternity and her highest teachings and to have her welfare ever at heart that she may be a symphony of high purpose and helpfulness in which there is no discordant note.
— Ethel Switzer Howard, Xi Chapter, 1904
