'''Epsilon Omega''' is the University of Mississippi chapter of [[Alpha Phi Omega]].

==History==

===Early History: 1948-1982===
Epsilon Omega was chartered on May 5, 1948 as the 144th chapter of Alpha Phi Omega.

The chapter faded in the early 1980s. Little is currently known about the chapter between 1948 and 1980 aside from information found in ''Ole Miss'' yearbooks. In 1951, the ''Ole Miss'' lists 60 student members. By 1973, the chapter was down to only 21 members, and by 1975, the chapter had only 10 members.

During this time period, the chapter participated in many traditional service projects, including:
* Fundraisers for March of Dimes
* Ugly Man on Campus
* Annual campus book exchange
* Sponsoring Boy Scout troops and Cub Scout packs in Lafayette County

The first women involved in the Epsilon Omega chapter joined during the 1972-73 school year; one of these women, Katherine Baker, was chapter historian as of Fall 1973. The 1973 ''Ole Miss'', with information collected in Fall 1972, states: "Members are chosen from the student body who are interested in aiding the university and the surrounding area." The selection criteria make no reference to gender. In the 1974 ''Ole Miss'', women were no longer eligible to become members or listed as being members, although a woman, Flossie Stuby, still managed the book exchange: only enrolled "male students" were eligible for membership. Similar language was used in 1975. While little information is currently available, the chapter did not appear to become co-ed again after the 1976 convention. We hope to interview alumni from the 1970s to clarify what information we've been able to find.

===Rechartering: 2003-2008===
In 2003, two students, Jordan Taylor and Steven Griffin, were inspired by the recently chartered chapter of Omega Phi Alpha, a national service sorority, and wanted to create additional service opportunities on campus appealing to men as well as women. As a result of their efforts, the Epsilon Omega chapter of Alpha Phi Omega was rechartered on December 5, 2004 with 21 members. Jordan and Steven attended the 2004 National Convention in Denver as the chapter's voting delegates. In the following semesters, the chapter struggled with recruiting younger members, and despite having pledge classes each semester through Spring 2006, the chapter stopped reporting information in 2007. By 2008, all initiated members had graduated.

===Post-Rechartering: 2009-present===
The chapter was revived in the 2009-10 academic year, primarily through the efforts of graduate students. Jordan Richard, Rosie Nelson, and Wendy Whitmire used the Fall 2009 semester to untangle the few records left behind and get the chapter back into good standing before recruiting additional members. The chapter had only one active member (Rosie) from September 2009 through April 2010, with anywhere from four to seven advisors. Jordan and Wendy became community advisors, with Jordan elected as advisory chair.

The Spring 2010 pledge class was originally composed of 10 members; of those, 8 were initiated into the fraternity on April 17, 2010. The Spring 2010 pledge class namesake was Cole Robertson, Region VII Director, honoring the extensive help he provided to the chapter in its revival efforts.

==Traditions==
===Toast Song===
The chapter substitutes "true to" for "men of" at all chapter events. Brothers also begin shaking their hands up and down, while remaining clasped, with the line, "Now we raise our grateful voices..." This tradition was adopted from [[Omicron Zeta]] (or, at least, that's who they attribute it to).

At interchapter events, Epsilon Omega brothers will typically either sing "men of" or not sing those two words of the Toast Song out of respect to other chapters in attendance with different traditions (notably [[Alpha Epsilon]]).

The chapter sings the Toast Song after every chapter event, including but not limited to service projects, fellowships, leadership development events, and chapter meetings.

===Interchapter Hat===
[[Image:EO_IC_Hat.JPG|thumb|Epsilon Omega 2009-10 Interchapter Hat]] Members of Epsilon Omega take a hat to every interchapter (IC) event they attend. During or shortly after the event, a member of the host chapter is asked to sign the hat, typically either the event chair or someone the chapter interacted with extensively.

The current hat, a red felt cowboy hat, began circulation on October 18, 2009 with a visit to an [[Alpha Epsilon]] chapter meeting. The hat was purchased at a Wal-Mart in College Station, Texas after the 2009 Region VII Conference at Texas A&M, but does not have a signature from that event. It contains signatures from five events in three different regions, as well as signatures from additional brothers that the chapter met over the year. The most notable signature is probably by the president of [[Gamma Upsilon]] chapter at Tulane University shortly after their rechartering ceremony. The hat was also signed by National President Maggie Katz at the [[Section 69]] Conference in February 2010.

==Trivia==

Rosie is one of [[Isaac Liao|Isaac Liao's]] littles from [[Gamma Gamma]], where she was active as an undergrad. All of the current actives at Epsilon Omega come from her line. Meaning that, in a twisted way, everyone currently active in Epsilon Omega is connected to [[Iota Phi]] and [[Gamma Gamma]] (but IPhi matters more, it's their wiki).

The chapter's interchapter hat was inspired by a contest held by the [[Gamma Gamma]] IC chair at the Spring 2003 Section 4 Conference hosted by [[Iota Phi]]. Attendees from Gamma Gamma were asked to have as many IC brothers as possible sign their plastic cowboy party hats.

The interchapter hat was almost lost at the [[Region X Conference (2009)|2009 Region X Conference]] when Rosie accidentally left it in a lecture hall. She got it back on day four, after a lot of brothers made a lot of phone calls.

== Past Section 4 Conferences ==

Traditionally, two conferences are held every year, in the fall and in the spring. Conference hosts are chosen via election at the spring business meeting. In some years, the section has elected not to host a fall sectionals, either due to [[Region Conference|Regionals]] occurring about the same time, to substitute in a fall fellowship event, or simply if no bid proposal was approved at a prior conference.
