A few small errors about APO-USA (specifically the number of PGs and the
name of the school in Canada we are expanding to) but very interesting!

APO 70th year facts and figures
Happy anniversary, Alpha Phi Omega!
Today, our beloved service fraternity celebrates its 70th foundation year. On
December 16, 1925, APO formalized its organization at Lafayette College,
Easton, Pennsylvania, United States of America. From that historic day, APO
has made a list of tremendous accomplishments. This compilation attempts to
capture some of the facts and figures of seven decades. Information is
current as of December 1995 unless noted otherwise.
Thanks to the following who assisted our research: Sis Jaen Abejero and staff
