Omega Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated
Sorority Herstory
Seventeen wonderful and dedicated women of diverse backgrounds founded Omega Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated (OPBSI) on March 15, 1989 . It was the first Latina-oriented sorority on the SUNY Albany campus.
The seventeen women established Omega Phi Beta with the purpose to Serve and Educate people of diverse backgrounds through sisterhood, leadership and guidance. As positive role models, we promote unity of all cultures, focus on the empowerment of our gender and raise the standards of excellence in our academic, social and personal endeavors.
Our organization has quickly grown over the years and we have chapters and colonies throughout Northeast, Eastern Seaboard, Midwest and West Coast. To learn more about our sorority and all of our chapters we encourage you visit our national website. In addition you can find a listing of all our current chapters on our National Site as well.
