Britt Edwards

Britt Edwards, daughter of Benjie and Donna Edwards of Washington, was initiated into the Alpha Lambda Chapter of Alpha Omicron Pi during her fall semester at Georgia Southern University in Statesboro.

Alpha Omicron Pi is an international women's fraternity promoting friendship for a lifetime, inspiring academic excellence and lifelong learning, and developing leadership skills through service to the fraternity and community. The object of the fraternity is to encourage a spirit of fraternity and love among its members, to stand at all times for character, dignity, scholarship and college loyalty, to strive for and support the best interest of the colleges and universities in which chapters are installed and in no way disregard, injure or sacrifice those interests for the sake of prestige or advancement of the Fraternity or any of its chapters.

Alpha Omicron Pi was founded in l897 at Barnard College of Columbia University in New York and national expansion began in l898. The Alpha Lambda chapter was founded at Georgia Southern in April, l988, and has grown from 65 to over 130 sisters.

Britt is a sophomore chemistry major at Georgia Southern.

Katy Wills, daughter of Sam and Patti Wills and granddaughter of Tut Wills and the late Dr. Charles Wills of Washington, is also a sister of AOII and served as vice-president of recruitment.
