Losing Interest in Chapter but Not Fraternity

[AndrewPiChi]

This is my opinion one of the growing problems in Alpha Phi Omega and one the reasons why I decided to leave

When you pledge, you pledged did give unfaithfully of your time and energy to your fraternity and chapter. Frank Reed Horton pledged that if he survived world war one he would help promote a standard of manhood that withstand the test of time by binding them to a fraternity to help keep young men out of trouble. By the principals upon which it was founded Alpha Phi Omega is not a club, its not a professional organization, it is not a resume builder, it is first a foremost inspired to be a fraternity to help college men get a better start in life. This is something I firmly believe in my heart that many have strayed. What was once a fraternal organization, proud and honorable has become in many cases nothing more than a club.

If the problems you have addressed show that your chapter considers the organization a special interest group or club, then it is the responsibilty of every individual to correct it.

Alpha Phi Omega was intended to forge a fraternal bond, if at any level this is lost than our founders vision is truly doomed.

It was out of these feelings that Alpha Delta, in some part, was founded. A growing disagreement with the course of National Alpha Phi Omega.
