Theta Nu Xi Multicultural Sorority Inc. - Magnificent Mu Chapter

was first introduced to Soror Nita Umashankar by Eta Chapter founder Amrita Srinivas in 2000. In the spring of 2001, when Sorors Sruthi Talluri and Nita Umashankar were contemplating the creation of a new sorority at the University of Arizona ,one which supported the needs of women like them, Nita recalled hearing of Theta Nu Xi. After contacting the National Organization and conducting further re

search, 10 women declared interest during the summer of 2001. Further recruitment ensued in search of women that would establish the Mu Colony and build a strong foundation for the future. On December 2, 2001, six sensational women, Julie Steele, Kimberly Henry, Sutopa Barua, Nita Umashankar, Heather Truschel, and Sruthi Talluri proved themselves fit to be Theta Women and founded the Mu Colony. After persistently waiting for University recognition, the Mu Colony was officially granted chapter status on August 18, 2003 . ONE Breath will forever cherish the unyielding dedication and guidance of Sorors Amanda Greene, Anna Lamadrid and the rest of their amazing colonizing team. Fortitude and perseverance proved successful as the Mu Chapter continues to expand its membership of exceptional women and to positively impact its campus and community.
