"History is likened to a plant growing slowly; It is built up from the accumulation of years. Old initiates and active members are volunteer workers who build that history." ~Jess Castillo (EPSILON '68). ~E~ Thumbnail picture shows a 10K solid gold, pearls encrusted Epsilon Chapter guard pin sorrounded by a number of popular Alpha Phi Omega symbols. In this album viewers will flashback through old and rare photos collected by several generations of Epsilon graduates (alumni) since March 2, 1952 when Alpha Phi Omega International (Philippines) Service Fraternity completed its third chapter extension at the University of the East yet it was assigned the "E" Greek letter.
