Alpha Eta | Officers

Officers

Our chapter is led by some of the most passionate and hardworking brothers in the Southeast District. A new executive board is elected each spring by the active Alpha Eta membership, and that executive board appoints nine additional officers every fall and spring semester. These officers represent the best of Alpha Eta and the University of Florida Bands.
