Our Purpose
|
We, the graduates and former students of the Alabama Agricultural and Mechanical University, cognizant of the cultural, educational, recreational, social, verbal and aesthetic and spiritual need for coordination by an organized group, and aware that certain actions and programs may best be promulgated for the unified interest of the University, Alumni, and Student Body through cooperation and believing that these needs are best realized by a formal organization do hereby establish such an organization.
