The founding of Alpha Xi Omega is unprecedented and unique in the history
of the Greek fraternity system in the United States. Our origin can be traced
back to the establishment of the fraternity Alpha Kappa Lambda (known as AKL)
in the year 1914. AKL in UC Berkeley was the first chapter of what eventually
resulted in a nation-wide fraternity with over a hundred chapters and thousands
of brothers across our nation.

In the early 1990's, our chapter of AKL was composed primarily of men of Asian-American
ancestry despite being a general-interest "white" fraternity. Therefore the men of
AKL decided to transform themselves into an "Asian-interest" fraternity. Within
a year of that conversion, we emerged as the premier Asian-American fraternity
on the campus, gaining renown not simply within the Asian-American community
but in the entire Northern-Californian region and among the entire Greek system
of UC Berkeley.

In the year of 1997, due to divergent interests with those of our national charter,
we deemed it necessary to create a new name for our brotherhood that redefined
ourselves as an Asian-American fraternity. On May 3, 1997, we officially chartered
ourselves as Alpha Xi Omega (known as AXiO) and restructured ourselves as an
Asian-interest fraternity while maintaining the excellence we valued as AKL.

Therefore, we became the first Greek organization in the U.S. to rename and
resurrect ourselves, a feat which no other organization is capable of accomplishing
without losing their distinction and superiority.

Our history will amply justify why we can proclaim ourselves as the premier
fraternity. We have persisted despite obstacles, and continue to thrive because
we strongly believe in the strength of our brotherhood. Any fraternity can claim
that they are strong, but talk is cheap. You are welcome to judge us for yourselves
and compare us to others, but in the end there can only be one that is the
strongest, and that is Alpha Xi Omega.
