Quincy University Chi Omega Chapter of Chi Sigma Iota

Congratulations to our Chi Omega President-Elect, Pasha Yates, on presenting her poster session, “The Impact of AI and Social Media on Confirmation Bias in Mental Health Self-Diagnosis,” alongside Dr. Oliver at Quincy University Academic Symposium! We are proud to celebrate their outstanding achievement of earning 1st Place for Poster Presentation. Our students dedication to research, leadership, and advocacy in mental health continues to make us proud! 🎉👏

We proudly celebrated our 2025–2026 Chi Omega Initiation Ceremony, welcoming new members into our chapter. The evening was made even more special by keynote speaker Dr. Chris Bhat, Immediate Past President of American Counseling Association, who shared the history of Chi Sigma Iota and words of wisdom with our students. It was an honor to have her join us. We also recognized several outstanding students with special awards.

Had such a great time connecting with everyone at our Chi Omega event at Quincy Brewery! We enjoyed a relaxed evening getting to know each other, sharing laughs, and playing fun games together. It was the perfect mix of community, conversation, and a little friendly competition 😊

Honored to present and represent Quincy University at the ASGW Conference in Chicago! Dr. Civan and Emely Hernandez, shared a session on Multicultural Approaches to Group Grief Work, focusing on collective healing and culturally responsive group practices.
