92 Years of Tradition

Alpha Phi Omega was founded on December 16 1925 at Lafayette College, Easton, Pennsylvania. The Brothers who established the first Chapter recognized the opportunities for constructive Service to be rendered by a well-organized group of former Scouts on the campus. Their ideas spread rapidly and Alpha Phi Omega now has more than 680 Chapters from coast to coast. Our Chapter here at Ohio Northern University was established in 1998.All of the Chapters of Alpha Phi Omega are affiliated in our national organization. Our National Headquarters is located in Independence, Missouri. We are recognized by the officials of the colleges and universities where we have Chapters. Although scouting affiliation is no longer required for membership, the Fraternity is officially recognized by the national Council of Boy Scouts of America. While the growth of Alpha Phi Omega has been rapid, the foundation has remained firm and dependable.
