Parents & Families

We know that sending your daughter to the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire is a milestone filled with both excitement and a few nerves. You want her to find more than just a place to study; you want her to find a community where she is seen, supported, and encouraged to grow. At Alpha Xi Delta, our mission is to provide a sisterhood that fosters academic excellence, leadership, and personal development while building friendships that last long after graduation. Our chapter at UW-Eau Claire is deeply committed to helping members navigate the trials and tribulations of college life. Whether they are tackling the rigorous nursing clinicals, student teaching, or leading in the College of Business. We provide a built-in support system that offers mentorship, leadership roles, and the resources necessary for your daughter to realize her full potential. Most importantly, Alpha Xi Delta gives your daughter a "home base" in Eau Claire. She will be surrounded by women who celebrate her Dean’s List achievements and stand by her through the challenges of college life. We are proud to uphold our core values of courage, graciousness, and peace. Through our philanthropic efforts and local service, our sisters also take pride in making a tangible, positive impact on the Eau Claire community. When your daughter joins Alpha Xi Delta, she isn’t just joining a sorority for four years; she is joining a lifelong network of women who will inspire and empower her well beyond her time as a Blugold.

Dear Alpha Xi Delta Family,

Welcome to Alpha Xi Delta! Your loved one has found a home in an organization that has been inspiring women to realize their potential since 1893. We look forward to playing a strong and positive role in your student's college life and beyond, and we hope that you will be an involved and supportive part of this experience.

The concepts to which our founding members dedicated themselves when Alpha Xi Delta was founded in 1893 - a broad, purposeful education; high moral character; selfless service to others; and, most importantly, deep and abiding friendship - still hold true today and are, in fact, the cornerstone of our chapter programming.

During your loved one's college years in Alpha Xi Delta, she will make friends to support and motivate her, and she will find guidance in the Alpha Xi Delta alumnae who advise her chapter and serve her house corporation board. She will be mentored by Sisters who emphasize the importance of academics and sound study habits, who model interpersonal cooperation in the face of differing viewpoints and who believe that community service is inherent to being a good citizen. Through active chapter involvement, she will have the opportunity to develop life skills, leadership and organizational management skills, self-awareness, esteem and confidence. And she will be surrounded by others who support her through her challenges and celebrate with her when she meets them. In short, Alpha Xi Delta will serve as her home away from home during college, and we hope she enjoys every minute!
