In the beginning, there was one vision, one dream, and one mind. Founding Sister Kristin Boydston was in search of a powerful, hardworking, loving sisterhood committed to a greater cause: Multiculturalism. 

 

After extensive research, Founding Sister Boydston found a sorority whose values embodied everything for which she had been searching: Theta Nu Xi Multicultural Sorority, Inc.  She contacted the Sorority to begin the expansion process for Muhlenberg College and gathered women with similar aspirations.  Despite being very involved in extracurriculars on Muhlenberg's campus, our Founding Sisters craved something more.

Founding Sister Kramer wanted an all-encompassing organization that embodied leadership, multiculturalism, sisterhood, and scholarship in addition to service.  Founding Sister Villegas wanted to leave a legacy. Founding Sister Lundy hoped to extend her volunteerism and tutoring to impact and help diversity grow on campus. And although Founding Sister Liciaga had served in leadership positions on Student Council and in other organizations, she still searched for an effective way to promote diversity and overcome her personal experiences with racism. Together, these five exceptional women followed through with their mission to embody sisterhood while promoting their consistent commitment to leadership, service, scholarship and multiculturalism.  

On April 27th, 2003, the Rho Colony of Theta Nu Xi Multicultural Sorority, Inc. was formed.  Rho Chapter was the first undergraduate citywide chapter and was based in Allentown, PA.  In Fall 2010, the Rho Chapter became an officially chartered chapter, as recognized by Muhlenberg College. 

We are the fifteenth installment of Theta Nu Xi's undergraduate presence.
