Alpha Xi Delta

Gamma Tau at Ohio Northern University

Academics

My name is Abby Howard, and I am the academic achievement director of the Gamma Tau chapter of Alpha Xi Delta here at Ohio Northern University. Each year, as a chapter, we participate in an academic challenge amongst the entire panhellenic council of the university via a Facebook page. Each week there is a new challenge, some examples include posting a picture to the forum of you studying for an assessment, explain a course that you found challenging and provides tips to get through it, or take a quiz to find out what your learning style is. These are great ways for sisters to stay on top of academics and push themselves in a manner of healthy competition.

I have a lot of pride in my fellow sisters of Alpha Xi Delta as we were the winners of the Panhellenic Academic Challenge this past fall semester of 2022. We all know that these past years have been very taxing on students and our chapter has pushed through. As a chapter our overall GPA is 3.42. This is the highest of any social Greek organization on campus. Our sisters are very dedicated to their academics, and it pays off! We have so many sisters getting impressive internships, receiving appealing job interviews, being a part of prestigious organizations, or having impressive resumes. Academics are very important to our chapter, and I am very much looking forward to helping my fellow sisters pass this upcoming semester with flying colors.
