Four college women, wanting to turn their friendship into a lifetime of sisterhood, founded Alpha Omicron Pi Fraternity in 1897 on the principle of inclusivity and acceptance. Our mission statement is “Women Enriched Through Lifelong Friendship." Today, members of Alpha Omicron Pi strive to exhibit values of service, scholarship and leadership in our daily lives.
