Chapter Beginnings
In 1883, Lambda helped establish Xi Chapter at Wesleyan University in Connecticut. But the number of women on campus declined sharply, and eventually women were no longer admitted. Therefore, the chapter was forced to return its charter in 1887. A century later, with the campus once again coed, Xi returned to Wesleyan in 1989 but left campus again in 2004.
Notable Thetas
From the very beginning, Theta alumnae have distinguished themselves in their careers and their volunteer endeavors. In fact, some are so well-known that they’re household names, and many have the distinction of being the first women in their professional fields. The archives takes this opportunity to recognize some of our more notable sisters.
