| What is APO? |
| |
| Why join Alpha Phi Omega, you ask? We understand that
before joining an organization, you would want to find out if it's
worth your time, and how the organization benefits you. We hope that
this web site will provide you with the information you need to know
about what we do and why hundreds of thousands of students have chosen
to make Alpha Phi Omega a part of their lives. |
| |
| Alpha Phi Omega is a national, co-ed, service fraternity.
For over 75 years, we have set the standard for college campus-based
volunteerism. Alpha Phi Omega strives to help each member develop
leadership skills, secure lasting friendships, and provide service
to others. |
| |
| Leadership |
| |
| Alpha Phi Omega offers students the opportunity to
practice and develop leadership. Each chapter's leadership is selected
by the majority of the membership. Opportunities are endless...you
could serve as a chapter officer, or serve as a project chair to plan
and execute projects and fellowship events. Leadership in Alpha Phi
Omega goes beyond your graduation as well. You may choose to serve
at the Sectional, Regional, National, and Alumni levels. These are
great ways to continue to provide service to the fraternity and to
continue friendships with brothers across the nation. |
| |
| Friendship |
| |
| Since 1925, more than 260,000 students have chosen
Alpha Phi Omega, simply because no other organization does the things
that Alpha Phi Omega does. We continue to be the nation's largest
Greek letter fraternity. Through conferences, conventions, and developmental
workshops, you meet brothers from all over the country. The relationships
found and developed in the activities of Alpha Phi Omega are indescribably
lasting and indeed something to treasure. |

| Service |
| |
| As a National Service Fraternity, Alpha Phi Omega
is the only national fraternity with service as its primary
mission. While there is a great diversity in the types of service
programs conducted from chapter to chapter, they all serve to make
up a great national ministry to human need, conducted exclusively
by college students. Some of the AEZ Chapter's more recognizable service
projects include: |
| |
| Trick-or-Treat for Canned Goods |
|
| UTD Students disperse into surrounding neighborhoods
to trick-or-treat for canned goods on Halloween, where cans
collected are donated to area food banks. |
|
| |
|
|
| AEZ organizes a camp for selected area elementary
school students, featuring various math and science workshops
to stimulate the students' interests in the subjects. |
|
| |
| Ugly Man on Campus (UMOC) |
|
| Students and professors compete for being the
ugliest man on campus, in order to raise money for his chosen
charity organization. All proceeds go to the winner's charity
organization. |
