Documents the activities of the Alpha Chapter of Alpha Phi Omega, an international service fraternity founded at Lafayette College. The material records the various activities of the fraternity: its founding in 1925 by Frank Reed Horton, its affiliation with and public endorsement by the Boy Scouts of America, its various college and community service activities, and the initiation of women into the fraternity in 1974. Of particular interest are photographs of Alpha Chapter activities and national pilgrimages spanning 1952-1982. The records also contain correspondence, speeches, scrapbooks, clippings, and memorabilia.
