Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a historical study of the Alpha Chi Omega fraternity, a prominent organization for college women in the United States. The fraternity was founded in 1885 for the advancement of music and the cultivation of high moral standards among its members. It is positioned as one of several sororities that appeared in the wake of the Civil War, due to a need for women to take up the teaching roles vacated by the soldier-pedagogues who went off to war. The author provides an overview of the educational and fraternity conditions around the time of Alpha Chi Omega's founding, and examines the group's origins, expansion into state universities, and the preservation of its musical traditions. Drawing on extensive research and historical documents, the author traces the evolution of Alpha Chi Omega's purpose and practices. The book will be of particular interest to members and alumnae of the fraternity and scholars studying the history of women's higher education.
