Chi Omega is one of the largest woman's organizations in the country taking pride in the principles listed above.  At Gettysburg, the Tau Delta chapter is a diverse group of women who are all active members of the college campus.  Collectively, we are involved in over 80 different extra-curriculars, clubs, and groups on campus - you can always find a Chi Omega involved in some kind of organization!  Our National philanthropy is the Make a Wish Foundation, and every year we sponsor the popular Mr. Fraternity contest.  Last November, we raised over $3000 for Make a Wish through this event.  In the spring we also host Watermelons for Wishes.  In addition to our national philanthropy we also support Survivors and The Growing Place - two local groups.  Tau Delta is known for our high ranks of scholarship.  For the past four years, we have been awarded the Highest GPA for the Spring Semester.
