A national co-ed service fraternity, APO is committed to the principles of leadership, fellowship and service. APO's chapter has served the Allegheny and Meadville communities for 25 years. In conjunction with the local United Way, students and local supervisors repair substandard housing for people unable to make repairs themselves. This national organization engages community members in the construction of affordable housing for people in need.
Students work with the local Habitat chapter and with chapters in other states.
This national honorary society for sophomores promotes fellowship, leadership, scholarship and the spirit of service. Selection is competitive and based on grade point average, extracurricular activities, and community and campus service. Each spring, Allegheny honors students and organizations whose valuable leadership and service activities deserve recognition.
