Nu Chi Omega Chapter was chartered on May 23, 1981 in Oxford, North Carolina at the former Holiday Inn Hotel.  Evelyn Reid Syphax, the 16th Mid-Atlantic Regional Director, conducted the ceremony. The group consisted of  twenty members from the surrounding counties of Vance, Granville, Franklin and Warren.

The idea of starting a chapter in this area was fostered by those who saw a large number of inactive members living in the area who had expressed a desire to form a local chapter. Several were members of Alpha Zeta Omega Chapter in Durham, North Carolina. They were Lillie Moss, Geraldlyne Dunn, Catherine McGhee, Elizabeth Chavis, Juanita Cozart and Dianne Evans.  The contributions and assistance of Alpha Zeta Omega Chapter and its caring and nurturing members were prominent in the establishment of Nu Chi Omega.

Members Gloria Chandler, Geraldlyne Dunn and Lillie Moss provided the inspirational drive needed to get the process started.  Gloria Chandler worked diligently with Evelyn Reid Syphax. Her hard work, dedication, commitment and knowledge of sorority procedures inspired invaluable acts of love and service. Geraldlyne Dunn passed away in the spring of 2001 and Gloria Chandler became an Ivy Beyond The Wall in June of 2003. Members McGhee and Chavis did not join Nu Chi Omega because of illness and commitment to Alpha Zeta Omega. They were two beautiful and loving members who always helped wherever they could.

Nu Chi Omega has helped with the establishment of two sister chapters. They are Rho Tau Omega of Warrenton, North Carolina and Sigma Nu Omega of Roxboro, North Carolina.

Nu Chi Omega has two Pearl members with at least 65 years of service, Shirley Holliday* and Lillie Moss. There are four Golden Members with 50 years or more in the sorority: Carolyn White, Linda Robinson, Phyllis Williams, Vivian Bullock.  We are very proud of each of them.  The chapter currently has 18 Silver members with 25 years or more of service.
