Alpha Omicron Pi Invited to Re-Colonize at Virginia Commonwealth University

Alpha Omicron Pi is pleased to announce that the Fraternity has been invited to recolonize our Rho Beta chapter at Virginia Commonwealth University.  AOII’s Vice President of Development Allison Allgier and Rebecca Myers, AOII Extension and Colonization Administrator, visited the university in mid-November to meet with women of the local interest group, representatives from Panhellenic, the Greek Adviser, and local AOII alumnae.

Established in 1968, Virginia Commonwealth University enrolls over 30,000 students with 15 schools and one liberal arts college for almost 200 certificate, undergraduate, graduate, professional, and doctoral programs.  For more information regarding the university and its programs, please visit the University’s website at www.vcu.edu.

The campus currently has twenty-four Greek organizations, including six Interfraternity Council organizations; eight National Pan-Hellenic Council organizations; five multi-cultural organizations; and five members of the National Panhellenic Council – Alpha Gamma Delta, Alpha Sigma Alpha, Phi Mu, Phi Sigma Sigma, and Sigma Sigma Sigma.  The Rho Beta Chapter was the 149th installed chapter of Alpha Omicron Pi Fraternity and was closed in May 1995.  Recolonization of the chapter is slated for fall 2007.  More information regarding the colonization process is forthcoming.
