In 1895, four young women at the University of Arkansas came together for a common purpose, to form an organization which values the talents of women and encourages them in realizing their greatest potential. Based on these principles, Chi Omega grew and achieved national status within its first decade. Today, Chi Omega has grown into the largest fraternal organization in the world with 173 collegiate chapters and over 300,000 women initiated into our sisterhood.

Clemson University’s Psi Kappa of Chi Omega has members involved in various campus activities including honor societies, club and varsity athletics, service organizations and other various groups within the University. Chi Omega has a national alliance with the Make a Wish Foundation, and Psi Kappa’s support is based around two annual events, Dodge Ball and CHI*O Boot Camp.

 As scholarship is one of the key values of our founders that we hold in high regard, 2007-2009 we held the highest new member and member GPA of all Greek organizations on Clemson's campus and continue to make scholarship a high priority! In 2009 Chi Omega was named Panhellenic Chapter of the Year and in 2010 we were awarded Chapter of Merit! Chi Omega was awarded the 2010 National Award of Excellence, an honor only given to the top 15 chapters nationwide! 

As we strive to be the premier women’s organization in the 21st Century, Chi Omega not only offers the opportunity for our members to share a bond of sisterhood and friendship that will last a lifetime, we also seek to serve the community and the country as a united group of women, fostering the development of future leaders and empowering women everywhere to make a difference.
