Alpha Psi Omega - National Theatre Honor Society

Alpha Psi Omega

Alpha Psi Omega exists as a vehicle for the advancement of theatre on the ETBU campus. We encourage pride in one's work and demand an attitude of service from our members. Through theatrical productions, campus activities, and community service, Alpha Psi Omega will strive to play an active role in campus life. In doing so, we hope to foster a love for the stage among our members and our school.
