Description of Chapter & National Organization: Omega Phi Chi is a multicultural sorority that was founded on November 9, 1988 at Rutgers University New Brunswick in New Jersey by eight women of Asian, African-American, and Latina descent. Our eight founding mothers were an active group of young women leaders who felt the absence of any organization on the Rutgers campus that spoke to their needs across diverse backgrounds, distinct cultural roots and a commitment to womanhood. Omega Phi Chi dared to be different. They came together to found a multicultural sorority, a different type of organization, that would not be categorized by ethnicity or culture.
Omega Phi Chi Multicultural Sorority, Inc. is one of the founding organizations of the National Multicultural Greek Council (NMGC). Established in 1998, the NMGC is an umbrella council for a coalition of Multicultural Greek-letter organizations (MGLOs). The purpose of NMGC is to provide a forum that allows for the free exchange of ideas, programs, and services between its constituent fraternities and sororities; to promote the awareness of multicultural diversity within collegiate institutions, their surrounding communities, and the greater community-at-large, and to support and promote the works of its member organizations.
