National History

​

The founding chapter of Alpha Delta Chi was started at the University of California at Los Angeles in 1925. The original founders were:

 

  • Ruth Umsted Ohly

  • Evelyn Kepple Kay

  • Marion Wright Madden

  • Willard Crowder Clawson

  • Theta Slingerland Dean

  • Alice Slingerland McEachern

  • Amy Culp

  • Dora Marie Showalter-Goertz

  • Dorothea Harvey Schultz

  • Alma Becker

 

Their vision was to create a place where Christian women could participate in Greek life without compromising their beliefs, build strong friendships, and most of all, they wanted to create a place which would mirror Christ's love to their community. The sorority was originally named Areta, which means virtue. The sorority's purpose is to provide fellowship for Christian college women, to strengthen the spiritual lives of its members, and to be a testimony for Christ on each campus.

Psi Chapter History

​

Alpha Delta Chi came to the attention of Katherine (Katie) Rolf after researching information about the Christian sisterhood on the internet. In the spring of 2005, Katie arranged a meeting where many women at the University of North Alabama came together with the desire to have a Christian sisterhood. From the large group that expressed interest, 9 committed women kept in contact with the National Board and constructed by-laws while participating in service activities and growing in their friendships. The Psi Chapter of Alpha Delta Chi was established in December 2006 on the University of North Alabama campus in Florence, Alabama. The nine charter members are:

​

  • Katherine Ann Rolf

  • Leah Spooner Balentine

  • Stephanie Anne Pugh

  • Clair Harrison Willis

  • Jessica Renee McSpadden

  • Jennifer Ruth Kimbrough

  • Channing Nicole Ward

  • Brandy Nicole Barnett

  • Tiffany Danielle Terry
