Alpha Xi Delta Dallas Alumnae Chapter


Find us on Facebook

A welcome from our
chapter president

Welcome Dallas area Alpha Xi Deltas to our new website. The 2011-12 officers have spent many hours last summer evaluating our programs and communication efforts and we are listening to your concerns and suggestions! We have invested into this website and our Facebook page, and we hope that you will use them to get the latest information about our sisters and events that are planned to get us together for socializing and networking.

As President of the Dallas Alumnae I encourage each of you to get back in touch with the group that meant so much to you during your college years. Attend one of the Alpha Xi events this year. I personally look forward to meeting you soon!

Love you as a sister!

Shelley Smith.
