[aopirose]

Alpha Omicron Pi is pleased to announce that the Fraternity has been selected to colonize at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology. Colonization is scheduled for spring 2006. Rose-Hulman will become AOII’s 181st chartered collegiate chapter.

Founded in 1874, the institute is located in Terre Haute, Indiana and is a four-year, private, non-sectarian college of engineering, science, and mathematics. Current enrollment is 1,900-plus. The institute is considered highly competitive with more than 3, 300 applications for this year’s 470-member freshman class. The school has been ranked by U.S. News & World Report as the nation’s best college or university offering a bachelor’s or master’s degree as its highest degree in engineering. This is the seventh consecutive year that Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology has received this honor.

Alpha Omicron Pi competed with Kappa Kappa Gamma for the extension opening. AOII will join two other existing NPC groups on the campus – Chi Omega and Delta Delta Delta. A sorority interest group, along with other interested women, will participate in the colonization process slated for late April. Chapter total is 45. More information regarding the Rose-Hulman colonization is forthcoming.

Along with Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology, AOII will also be colonizing at the University of Arkansas in August 2006 and the University of La Verne in October 2006.
