Every Brother at some point in their Alpha Phi Omega career wonders how or why certain national policies were established. The ultimate answer is that the Brothers voting at a National Convention decided it would be that way. The supreme authority of Alpha Phi Omega is the National Convention.
Any Brother can propose new legislation and changes to existing policies.
A packet containing all the proposed changes was included in the October 2000 National Office mailing to all chapters. If you have not received the mailing yet, please contact your Section Chair, Regional Director, alumni voting delegate or the National Office. A searchable archive of the proposed legislation is now available to simplify the process of reviewing the proposals. The handbook gives a good general overview of how the National Convention operates. 1996 legislation may also be found at the 1996 Phoenix Convention website .
