We asked a fellow sister, why Alpha Xi Delta? 

"I chose Alpha Xi Delta because it truly felt like home during a time where I felt isolated and alone. I went through online formal recruitment in Fall 2020 during the peak of COVID-19. I was worried about being a freshman and making friends when there were no in person classes or events. Until recruitment, my only friends on campus were the girls who lived on my floor because it was so difficult to meet other people. I was feeling discouraged and lonely. Then, during recruitment Alpha Xi Delta started to feel like home. The girls were so welcoming and down to earth. I finally had a chapter full of friends during a time when I felt so alone. The transition to college was extremely difficult but my sisters made it possible. Alpha Xi Delta is a place where I can be the most authentic version of myself. I am constantly surrounded by resilient, courageous, and generous women. I am so grateful to be a part of such a special sisterhood. "
