I' say Alpha Phi Omega 212, at least. It does have its flaws, but it is a very valuable resource. There are certainly parts of that resource that need to be updated, but the 75th anniversary CD does some of that.

You've actually made this more interesting by this statement. What more will satisfy the intellectual appetite by reading material the way it was written by FRH himself. The current pledge manual is extremely void of fraternal passion, compared to documents just 20 years earlier. It's so watered down and filtered, it's like taking the water out of coffee. When you say "descriptive and elaborate" when referring to the history Alpha Phi Omega, if your heart is in this organization it has got to give you a desire to know.

I agree. Which is why i have reviewed a 20 yr old pledge manual and actually purchased one from the 50's i think it was. It has not arrived as of yet.

Very cool. BTW, if that pledge manual includes the way that the fraternity was split up before Con-con, let me know...

He is looking for information on how our fraternity was organized nationally before we established the Region/Section structure at the 1967 Constitutional Convention, which is something I am also interested in.
Before that time we were apparently organized into Divisions and Sections were apparently largers then our current ones.

I was gonna say Alpha Phi Omega 201, to be honest, but I wasn't sure if everyone would allude to the 201 being a course designation, so I said 101 b/c I knew everyone would be familiar with that number.
But you're right, nonetheless.
