From the official national history of Omega Phi Alpha:

"In 1953, a group of men in Zeta Kappa chapter, Alpha Phi Omega, a National Service Fraternity, decided they were in need of another organization to help them with service projects on campus and in the city of Bowling Green, Ohio. These men met with the deans of the various departments of the University to decide whether or not another service fraternity would be advisable for Bowling Green State University. Then, an inquiry was made to see if any interest existed on campus. Many women attended this inquiry. Realizing the need for more varied projects, plans were made to reorganize a women's service sorority.

Since the objectives of the two organizations were to be the same - Friendship, Leadership, and Service - a similar name was chosen: Omega Phi Alpha."

So who are the APO's sisters - OPA or GSS?






























Just kidding!

Depending on who you ask, both!

Seeing that it's our 80th birthday tomorrow, I have an equation for you all.

A Coed APhiO+GSS+OPhiA+Phyette Auxiliary Group+Jewels Of Tau Service Organization=WAY TOO MUCH DANG ESTROGEN IN THE MIX!!!!!

(sorry, had to get that off my chest)

Lemme go holla at some of the A-Phi-Qs and give 'em some love on our 80th birthday....


Carry on...

And that's why OPhiA didn't just merge when APhiO went coed It's just not the same thing ... Personally, I'm glad there's both kinds. But I think it would be cool if there were some more male orgs in the mix.
