A note from our Night Owls chairHello! I am Savannah Near and though it feels like most of you have known me since I
could say “Bid Day,” here is a bit of background on me: I grew up in Dallas andattended Highland Park High School. I was a Theta Kappa at Baylor University,
member of PC ’10, and served on the Cardinal Cabinet. I received my master’s inCounseling from Southern Methodist University and started a Ph.D. in Counseling
before I saw the light and decided to take a break from school! I am currently apracticing therapist at Park Cities Child and Family Counseling. Children, adolescents,
and parenting struggles are my specialty areas.
I am thankful to be serving as this year’s Night Owl Chairwoman for the 2019-2020 year. I made it my firstorder of business to change the name from Chi Omega Young Alumnae back to Night Owls, which helps
convey the social nature of our group.

We have an exciting year planned, from Pilates classes to a Galentines brunch! We encourage you to reachout the recent Chi Omega grads (or young adults!) in your life and share our group with them. I have served
on this board for a few years now, and am continuously impressed by the service to sisterhood that theNight Owl Board and members share. Our member base is a diverse group of Chi Omegas, from schools
across the country, and in various professions — truly embodying our Symphony.
My mom, sister, and I are all proud Chi Omegas and are looking forward to serving as the Chairwomen ofCOCM 2020. (You’re going to love our theme!)
In addition to serving Chi Omega, I enjoy serving my community as a member of Junior League of Dallasand Children’s Women’s Auxiliary. I also have a website and Instagram called "Nearly Southern” and go on
many adventures involving biscuits!
Due to the group’s name change, please note our new e-mail: [email protected].
