AOII Celebrations For Quasquicentennial

January 11th, 2021 in General News

On January 2, 2022 Alpha Omicron Pi will officially celebrate 125 years of AOII sisterhood – our quasquicentennial! Because our celebration will be on a grander scale than what one day can hold, the Fraternity will commemorate this occasion over the course of a full year, beginning with Convention 2021 and continuing through Leadership Institute 2022.

On January 2, 2022, AOII will celebrate our 125th Anniversary. To recognize this milestone occasion, the AOII Executive Board and the AOII Rituals, Traditions, and Jewelry Committee have approved the sale of a limited edition All Ruby Badge to commemorate this monumental occasion. This badge will be available for purchase in Sterling Silver ($215* USD), 10K Yellow Gold ($340* USD) and 10K White Gold ($340* USD) through January 2, 2023.

Considered a secondary badge, this badge is available for purchase by initiated members of AOII who are in good standing.

The All Ruby Badges are being handmade and will go into production as soon as possible after the order is placed, and ship once they are completed. Due to the COVID pandemic and shipping delays, HJ Greek cannot give a definitive timeframe for shipping.

Limited Edition 125th Anniversary Letterpress Print

This 125th Anniversary Letterpress Print was commissioned from Base Camp printing, a woman-owned small business based out of Charleston, West Virginia. We hope members enjoy all of the symbolism and special imagery included to represent 125 years of sisterhood.

AOII 125 Logo

AOII’s logo honoring our quasquicentennial was designed intentionally by incorporating AOII’s brand colors, fonts, and imagery, including the infinity rose that represents so many facets of our organization. The “2” of “125” is intertwined with the infinity rose providing a bit of dimension which brings the logo and celebration to life. It is recommended to use the primary 125 logo when celebrating the occasion from now throughout Leadership Institute 2022. The secondary 125 logo should be used when space permits the primary from being used (i.e. when a horizontal mark suits space better).

The logos are available in multiple variations for members to use including CMYK and RGB color profiles, JPG and PNG file types, and range from full color to single color options.

To access these files log in to Fulfilling the Promise, click on “AOFILES” in the top toolbar, scroll down to the logo library.
