About Us

Here at Beta Sigma, our sisterhood is made up of strong, compassionate, and driven women who come from all different backgrounds, but the one thing we all have in common is each other. Our chapter is known for being fun-loving and vibrant, yet deeply connected through a bond that celebrates every sister’s individuality.
At WVWC, we’re proud to be involved in countless campus activities, from athletics and academics to leadership and service. Whether you find us leading student organizations, supporting our teams from the sidelines, or volunteering in the Buckhannon community, Alpha Xi Delta women are always making their mark. And while we love a good time (we are the winningest sorority in Greek Week history here!), we’re just as proud of what we accomplish in the classroom, through our philanthropic efforts, and within our strong sisterhood.
What makes Alpha Xi so special is that no two sisters are the same. We each bring something unique to the table, and we value those differences wholeheartedly. From spontaneous Target runs to late-night talks and lifelong memories, our sisterhood is built on unwavering support, shared growth, and genuine connection.
As Alpha Xi Deltas, we live by the values of courage, graciousness, and peace. These principles that shape not only who we are in college, but who we’ll become long after. This is more than just a chapter. It’s a home, a community, and a launchpad for lifelong friendships and success.
We’re so excited to share our story with you. Welcome to Alpha Xi Delta at West Virginia Wesleyan College—where sisterhood feels like home.

In 1893, ten young women at Lombard College in Galesburg, Illinois, shared a vision and a dream of a national organization dedicated to the personal growth of women. Their dream became Alpha Xi Delta, one of the oldest women’s fraternities in the United States.

The timeless ideals envisioned by Alpha Xi Delta’s Founders remain constant throughout the years, inspiring pride in each member to pursue individual excellence. Now a national fraternity with more than 171,000 initiated members, our Fraternity is a progressive organization with college chapters and alumnae associations throughout the United States.

Alpha Xi Delta is proud of its history and lasting impact on its members and the Panhellenic community. In fact, Alpha Xi Delta’s first National Panhellenic Conference (NPC) Chairman wrote the Panhellenic Creed, which all members of NPC still recite on college campuses today.

Alpha Xi Delta’s Founders left us a great legacy. They taught us the value of education because it frees us to achieve our goals and gives us the power to be whatever we choose. They taught us to support one another through shared experiences and understanding. They taught us to serve others and reach out to better the lives of those less fortunate. Because of them, Alpha Xi Delta continues to inspire countless bold and talented women to realize their potential.
