The EquiZite
Epsilon Xi Chapter at Georgia Southern University is off to a fantastic start,
having taken on and successfully completing, over ten events only five weeks
into the semester! We kicked things off with a welcome to the freshman class
helping them move into their dorms before the first week of school. We followed
that up with passing out goodie bags on the first day of classes containing
things students will need for the semester, as well as a welcome letter from
our chapter. Following those two great events we had a table at the Freshman
Block Party, which provided us with a safe and open space to communicate with
freshman from all areas of life.
Along with the
freshman block party, we also had a table at the University Organization Fair,
Multi-Cultural Student Fair, and Fall Family Weekend. All of these fairs
presented us with the opportunity to speak to upper classman, and those
students who have constantly shown interest in our organization. In between the
many fairs, we hosted a forum entitled “How Crowded is Your Bed?” which was an
event designed to tackle the many questions surrounding sexual health and
activity. Along with those events, our chapters have attended anti-hazing
workshops, and campaigned the idea that Finer Women Don’t Haze across our
respective social media. To emphasize our care of the community as well as our
philanthropy we had a breakfast sale, in which a percentage of our proceeds
went to the March of Dimes. As a chapter our semester goal was to focus on
rebranding ourselves. We have hit the ground running, and only have more
exciting events and community services planned from here!
