"The Purpose of Theta Xi is provide a college home environment for its active members in which fellowship and alumni guidance lead to wholesome mental, moral, physical, and spiritual growth."
With that said, Theta Xi was the first social fraternity at UC Davis. The local chapter, Beta Epsilon, has initiated exactly 1167 members. As of Winter 2011, Theta Xi has 50 active members, one of the most of any social fraternity on campus, with a large variety of majors, nationalities and religious beliefs.
The chapter owns all three houses on 1st Street between D and E. Since the fraternity owns its houses outright with no mortgage, it reduces membership dues while increasing the budget for philanthropy, social events, and brother bonding activities to name a few. Besides partying, Theta Xi has been extremely active on campus. Theta Xi was the 2006 Greek Weeks champions with Delta Gamma. Members consistently find themselves in leadership positions at UC Davis such as in ASUCD and the California Aggie.
