Leadership
Alpha Phi Omega teaches us through our principles of Leadership, Friendship and Service that we are architects of our own ambitions and that each of us has the opportunity to develop ourselves to be whatever we seek to be.
In the area of Leadership, from within our own Fraternity, people are transformed from followers to leaders sometimes without really being aware of the development. It can happen gradually, or it might happen overnight-today a follower, tomorrow a leader.
Brothers recieve the chance to become Leaders either by becoming members of E-board, by leading service events, or taking on other leadership opportunities.
Friendship
Alpha Phi Omega seeks to develop friendship. We believe it possible for our members in our Chapter to develop meaningful relationships and a sense of Brotherhood. Shared experiences and an understanding of our Fraternal history and goals provide a basis for our national Brotherhood.
Brotherhood is the spirit of friendship. It implies respect, honesty and dependability. It means that we overlook differences and emphasize similarities as we join together in unselfish service. It means listening to Brothers whose views on issues might differ from our own. It means working closely with people whom under other circumstances we might not choose as our friends.
Being a friend is not easy. It takes work. Everyday we must challenge ourselves to be a better friend. To be more understanding, compassionate, welcoming and trusting. Our chapter's Fellowship program aims to create a spirit of friendship between brothers through various events.
Service
Our chapter service program provides many opportunities for the development of social awareness, friendships, and leadership skills. Participation in our Service program helps make Alpha Phi Omega the unique fraternal organization that it is.
Service to the Campus: Our chapter carries out projects that benefit the campus and the students.
Service to the community: Our Chapter includes in our service program projects which benefit the community and its residents. Service to the youth is a special area of consideration.
Service to the Nation: We develop projects that have an impact beyond the campus and community.
