About Alpha Eta Rho, Sigma Chi
Alpha Eta Rho is a collegiate fraternity founded in the field of aviation. Alpha Eta Rho, or AHP, the Greek letters that stand for “A I R”, was created to fulfill a definite need at the time. Enrollment in the aviation courses on the campus of the University of Southern California in the spring semester of 1928-29 was surprisingly large; faculty members and students were voicing the need for an extracurricular activity for organizing and promoting this interest in aviation.
The Eastern Michigan University Sigma Chi Chapter was founded on April 14th, 1991 by Ian C. Boone, a student in the Aviation Management program. Ian is the son of Dr. Morell D. Boone, Dean of the College of Technology. Since then, the fraternity has continued to be a professional co-ed organization founded to bring a bond between the Aviation Flight and Aviation Management students at Eastern Michigan University and help maintain contact with past members that are currently involved in the field of aviation.
