Name: Danielle
Chapter/School: Nu Psi, Montclair State
Pledged: I had my petitioning ceremony in Fall '08, crossed in Spring '09.
Offices I've Held: Fellowship Chair ('08-'09), President ('09-'10)
Why I Joined APO: I heard about it from two of my roommates who had joined the petitioning group the year before me. I love giving back to the community but can never find local opportunities, and APO seemed like the best way to go!
Anything Else: I am so happy to be a part of APO - it's been a very fun ride going from a PG to a chapter (just this month, on the 18th!) and I'm looking forward to everything we have coming!

I'm not sure but I don't believe I ever officially checked in despite posting on the boards here.

Name: Joseph

Chapter/ School: Xi Alpha/ Muhlenberg College

Pledged: September 2002

Initiated: December 2002

Offices/positions Held: Corresponding Secretary (Fall 2003)
President (2004 Calendar Year)
Representative to Section 91 Council (2004-2005)
Member Region II Toast Song Committee (2004)

Reason for joining: I first heard about APO from my scoutmaster and from the Order of the Arrow Handbook. I read about it and my leader, who was an alumnus of the Rutgers chapter, always spoke highly of his time in the chapter so I decided to give it a try.

Welcome Minerva! Being part of a (re)chartering group is an experience that some people with a great deal of experience in the Fraternity never get to do.

Welcome again anyway. :)

Welcome to Greekchat, Danielle, and congratulations on becoming Nu Psi president next year. The Blue and Gold Awards were great this year and everyone had a lot of fun! Best of luck to you for the rest of 2009!

Name: Justin

Chapter/School: Psi Phi Chapter/ Tennessee State University

Pledged: Spring 2009

Offices I've Held: None.

Why I Joined APO: In 2007 I first saw the letters on campus and was intrigued about what the organization stood for. My first encounter with them came later that year in the Fall semester, I was walking with a friend and we came to a program hosted by or joint hosted with APO, I remember getting a flyer and held on to it to study. One night I woke up and typed in Alpha Phi Omega, researched it and loved what it stood for. I attended numerous interest meetings for probably two years until I had the time to pledge.

Anything Else: I plan on attending conventions and visiting other chapters. I also plan on chartering new chapters in the future so that APO will continue to grow.

Welcome!

It's great to have new brothers here! The next convention is pretty close to you, in Atlanta.

Feel free to ask any questions here, we have brothers here with a wide variety of experiences!

Chapter/School: Alpha Zeta, University of Kentucky
Pledged: Fall '06
Offices I've Held: VP of Communications ('07-'09), President ('09-'10)
Why I Joined APO: As an Eagle Scout I find myself committed to serving my community and Alpha Phi Omega was a perfect fit!
Anything Else: I am a web developer at heart and so combining my two loves in life, APO and the web, I have produced a very useful tool that I would recommend to all APO chapters. If your chapter doesn't have a website or is struggling with managing all your members or keeping records please visit http://apoonline.org!

Welcome Tony!

Danielle: No way, Nu Psi came back? Outstanding, congrats! Section 99 has had a rough couple of years.

So rough, they got rid of it. All hail sections 101 and 102!
