This letter is in response to alot of debate about the APO-APhiO thing,
personlly like many people have said, the name depends on the chapter, I
am in a fairly mixed chapter and we use APO very often, but when I am
around my brothers from predominantly African-American schools I say
APhiQ, technically that is the correct name for Alpha Phi Omega if you
refer to your greek alphabet which we all have HAD to learn.
Alpha=A
Phi=Phi
Omega=Que or Q
Technically it is APhiQ but I also believe APO is used for short term, but
on the other hand APO technically means Alpha Rho Omicron, not Alpha Rho
Omega which someone said earlier.  Just a little food for thought!  =)
