Just so you know...You can go check that out with you chpater advisor.
Wow! Unfortunately, a lot of Alpha Omicron Pi sisters use AOPi to abbreviate Alpha Omicron Pi (which is incorrect because it is mixing Roman and Greek letters. II is the closest to Pi that you can type without changing the font - which is not possible on a typewriter. TT is also incorrect.). It is also very probable that four and half years ago your website used AOII and not the current AOPi - which still can be EASILY confused with Alpha Omicron Pi.

I think a point that was being made four and a half years ago (but in a different thread) is that not only are the letters similar, but the flower, mascot, etc are too similar to be a coincidence.
