Xi Psi Omega Officers and Members

Nine Howard University students were led by Ethel Hedgeman (Lyle) into forming a sisterhood in 1908. Five years later, Nellie Quander and her gallant and visionary associates contributed the added dimension of an international organization and perpetual membership.

The Xi Psi Omega Chapter is proud to be one of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated (AKA) 1,005 chapters and over 290,000 members. Membership is by invitation only.
