But I honestly don't know any further information. What I posted was directly from the website.

I once interviewed for a job at the National Society of Collegiate Scholars which would have been supervising their six field consultants. I think for APO, 4-6 would be a good number.

http://www.nscs.org/programs/SAE/ There's more about their program.

I personally wonder about the "work with Petitioning Groups, and represent Alpha Phi Omega to University Administrators on campuses where we wish to expand" part of the job. But that's just me.....

This is actually a revival of a former position in Alpha Phi Omega back in the 60s and early 70s: Regional Representative, which was a paid position similar to what you are seeing here now.
