Founders 
Alpha Omicron Pi was founded in 1897 by Stella George Stern Perry, Jessie Wallace Hughan, Elizabeth Heywood Wyman, and Helen St. Clair Mullen. AOII has over 130,000 initiated members, 178 chartered collegiate chapter across Canada and the United States and 300 chartered alumnae chapters internationally.
Badge
The badge of Alpha Omicron Pi is composed of the three initial letters of the three words of the Motto, superimposed one upon the next in order, which gives the Fraternity its name. Badges may be worn by initiated members only.
New Member Pin
The binding together of wheat into a sheaf in the new member pin represents individuals bound by the common bond of Alpha Omicron Pi. The pin is worn by new members during their new member period and is returned to the chapter before the initiation ceremony.
Jewel
Alpha Omicron Pi has only one jewel, the ruby. The occasional use of pearls or diamonds in special badges has no significance or special meaning.
Flower 
The Jacqueminot, a deep red rose, was chosen as the flower of Alpha Omicron Pi because its color is the symbol of the central and essential virtue of the Fraternity. This strong red rose, with its overtones of courage and vigor, was selected for its richness of color and fragrance, combines with softness and modesty of bearing.
Crest
AOII is the only women's fraternity that does not use a crest. Our founders felt that the beauty and simplicity of our badge possessed enough significance to stand alone. Crests are medieval while we are founded on Greek ideals. Where other groups might use a crest, we simply display the rose.
Colour
Alpha Omicron Pi has only one color, cardinal. It is the color of the Fraternity flower, the ruby and the ribbon sometimes worn under the badge to welcome a new collegiate chapter.
Mascot 
While not an official symbol, the Fraternity and our chapters consider the Panda to be its mascot.
