Who We Are

 

Chapter History
The Beta Chapter was founded in the Fall of 2003 at the University of California, Irvine by Melissa Hosboyar, Arpie Jivalagian, Alenoush Terzian, and Melineh Terzian. Through common goals, beliefs and visions for Alpha Gamma Alpha at the UCI campus, these four young ladies were able to pull together and expand the sorority to its second campus. The Beta Chapter continues to expand its presence in the Irvine community by participating in various Greek events as well as demonstrating its continuous passion and dedication to philanthropic causes both in the Irvine community and the greater Southern California community. Alpha Gamma Alpha is dedicated to fostering the interests of ambitious women, with Alumni going on to pursue careers in the fields of law, medicine, psychology and business.
