| The Beta Xi Chaper is recognized as
a 5 star chapter. We are also an 8th year Jewel society
member, which means that we have donated at least $2000 to the
Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation. We were recognized at the
AGD 2008 Convention as the chapter with 95 women or more to have
the most improved GPA |

| The Beta Xi Chapter, chartered in 1968, is the 99th
installment of Alpha Gamma Delta. Alpha Gamma Delta made
it's presence known on the Purdue campus from the very start.
Our very first pledge class consisted of 86 members allowing us
to skip "building" years. These members were first housed
in the brand new "Graduate House West", now known as Hawkins
Hall. They soon discovered that their rooms had not been
furnished, nor did they have telephones, which was a big deal
back in 1968. This experience allowed for strong bonds
to form between the girls. |
| The Beta Xi's soon found a house of their own when they
acquired the building that Delta Upsilon previously occupied.
Now they had the task of turning a fraternity into a home
suitable for females. The only evidence of Delta Upsilon
is the fact that there are no right angles remaining in the
house (unless structurally necessary). |
