Chi Walks

Longwood University is known for our long standing traditions. One of the traditions is the secret organization Chi. Chi was founded here at Longwood in 1900. The group stands for the spirit of Longwood. They do secret Chi walks on Longwood's campus which you will see here. On the day of the walk they will place blue and white flowers around campus to signify a walk that night, most walks take place at midnight on different parts of campus. The members of Chi wear hoods and gloves to cover themselves because no one knows who they are. They only reveal their senior year at the end when they have a huge Chi burning... a big bon-fire. The members of Chi try to promote the Longwood spirit through their Chi walks and Chi droppings. Chi droppings can be anything from pieces of fabric to Christmas ornaments or rubber duckies floating in the fountains. On these, Chi will write things such as "good luck on exams," "welcome back," and others. If you find a Chi dropping it is said to be veryyy good luck, and you have to pass down that luck and the dropping when you graduate.
