Alpha Phi Omega at UIS

So I am sure you've seen a lot of things going on lately from Alpha Phi Omega, and maybe you wondered what they were and what they do. Well today you are going to get the inside track on all things Alpha Phi Omega, and what they've been up to so far this semester.

Involvement Expo!

I'm sure a lot of you met them already, what with the events going on and also from their presence at the Involvement Expo (you remember them, they were the ones giving out the rootbeer floats), but here's the details: Alpha Phi Omega is a co-ed national service fraternity and they do a lot of really cool stuff. They have fellowship and bonding events, service projects, and are just a great group of people to get involved with.  

What have they been up to on campus lately? Well, frankly they have done quite a bit.

Game Nights

Adopt-A-Street

Quidditch!

(and if you don't think this deserves two pictures you are dead wrong).

Most importantly, though, they just welcomed eleven new pledges into their fraternity (in case you didn't know pledges are members who have not been fully initiated. They have a pledge ceremony where interested individuals show up and are ceremoniously brought into the fold, and then when they have completed some service and have learned all about the organization and want to dedicate themselves to being a part of it they become full members). 

And we would like to congratulate them on becoming a part of this amazing organization.

Congrats New Alpha Phi Omegas!!!

If you are interested in joining keep your eyes open for more events to come this semester, as well as for the info sessions and pledging ceremony next semester when they will, again, be taking new members.
