Anything Else: I know my APO experience will be one that I will always remember

Greetings Brothers,

Just wanted to reintroduce myself. That's me above.

One of my goals for 2009 was to become a life member and as of this week I have officially become a Life Member of Alpha Phi Omega Fraternity Inc!!!!! I've been feeling so disconnected from the organization since leaving school and now I feel I'm making strides in the right direction

Also the Section 4 (Northern California) Blog has a posting from Ajay Sharman, the section chair (head alumni volunteer for Northern CA) at http://www.aposection4.org/profiles/...:BlogPost:2161 where he talks about the group at UCSC (Alpha Gamma Nu) getting started on rechartering (posted July 2008). Try sending to section.4.chair@apo.org to contact him, if that doesn't work let me know and I'll get one that doesn't go through a redirection. The other option would be to contact the member of the National Board over Ajay at region.10.director@apo.org or contacting the director of chapter services at the Alpha Phi Omega national office at judy.mitchell@apo.org or 1-816-373-8667 extension 13.

Let me know how else I can help.

Hi everyone, while doing a vanity search on google, I stumbled upon this post (i am the owner of the "avanever" site), and would like to extend my support to anyone who has any questions! =D I will probably direct this thread to my VP of Public Relations. But yeah, nice to see we've hit recognition on a larger scale now, and I hope too meet you all. Good luck to CSUF on chartering!

Cool. Vanity searches. What position do you hold in the UCSC extension effort?

Thanks Bro TX Diva. I received my life membership Pin yesterday and my life member certificate and card today and was so happy.

Not being active has not felt right when I made the committment, so this is a step in the right direction for me.

University of Maryland, College Park (which is what most people think of as Maryland in the sports sense) is Epsilon Mu (which is active)

University of Maryland, Baltimore County is Alpha Zeta Pi (Brand New)

University of Maryland, Eastern Shore is Rho Omicron (inactive)

I'm on staff in Maryland (section 86), but rep to a school in the University System of Maryland, Frostburg State (Alpha Gamma Chi).

I'm actually an alumnus of Carnegie-Mellon University in Pittsburgh (Kappa chapter)

Not sure if *that* answered your question (or for that matter anyones...)

Randy

Why I Joined APO: My main reasons for wanting to join were to make friends and for philanthropy work. Before I discovered APO I went through NPC Formal Recruitment and COB, released both times before pref night/bid day.
Anything Else: Not much to say except that joining APO was the best decision I've ever made and I plan on running for Admin for the Fall 2009 semester.

Welcome!

Just curious, what is COB and what is Admin (presumably an office position in the chapter)?

Thank you!

COB is a term coined by NPC and it stands for "continuous open bidding". COB is basically informal recruitment. Admin is short for Vice-President of Administration, the person whom takes care of turning in our paperwork, pledge forms, etc. We refer to that position in Nu Gamma simply as "Admin".
