Chapter History

The Xi Delta GAP chapter of Theta Nu Xi Multicultural Sorority, Inc was founded on August 4th, 2003 in Dallas, Texas.

 

After almost 10 years of being inactive, the chapter was reactivated in June, 2015 by three women: Stephanie Adams, Kennetha Frye, and Sathya Henderson. Our tenets include scholarship, service, sisterhood, leadership, and multiculturalism and we pride ourselves on being agents of change within our community.

 

 

What multicultural means to us 

 

 In 1997, our seven original founders saw the need for a sorority that crossed the societal boundaries of race, religion, culture, and class. Although part of their vision included creating a sisterhood that physically exemplified the transcendence of those boundaries, their primary goal was to bring women together who believe in the ideal of multiculturalism and wanted to promote multiculturalism in their everyday lives.

 

 While other Greek organizations are and continue to grow more diverse, our organization explicitly seeks members with multicultural ideals and interests; we seek to use our sorority as a vehicle to educate the surrounding campus and community on issues of diversity. We recognize that diversity is not limited to race, and we are proud to say we have achieved a sisterhood which is quite diverse with respect to not only race, but religious heritage, geographic origin, sexual orientation, socioeconomic class, nationality, political ideology, and even choice of major and career.

 

 Ultimately, multiculturalism is the belief that there is inherent value in discovering, understanding, and appreciating all the ways in which people are different from each other.

 

 It is for this reason that we differentiate ourselves, in name and in purpose, from other Greek organizations with the word "Multicultural."
