HI
UPSILON OMICRON is a national honorary fraternity. Its
membership is chosen from women who are majoring in
Home Economics. They must rank in the upper two-fifths
of their class in at least three semesters of work,
show qualities of leadership through participation in
college activities, and be of good moral character.
Last year the local
organization of Phi Upsilon, composed of ten upper
class girls, petitioned the national fraternity of Phi
Upsilon Omicron for a chapter at the University of
Nebraska. In November, 1925, Xi chapter was installed
by the national president.
Some of the Phi
Upsilon Omicron girls are also members of Omicron Nu,
the national honor Home Economics fraternity. Betty
Bosserman, Edith Carse and Lois Jackman belong to both
societies.
Phi Upsilon Omicron
strives to encourage friendship, promote moral and
intellectual development of its members, and advance
the science of Home Economics.
The past year has
been spent in laying a foundation for future growth.
It is hoped that a scholarship fund can be established
next year. A project is now under consideration to
encourage interest in Home Economics among high school
girls.
