Alpha Nu Omega was established as a coeducational organization on November 3, 1988, at Morgan State University in Baltimore, Maryland.[1][2] It is a Christian fraternity and sorority with members from various Christian denominations.[3][4] It was formed to "present a Christian alternative to the students and or faculty on college/university campuses, to minister to the needs of the whole person (spirit, soul, and body), and to promote an attitude of academic excellence among its members."[5]

Alpha Nu Omega, Inc. was incorporated on December 20, 1988.[6] It was organized with one constitution, functions as two distinct entities–a fraternity and a sorority.[5][3][7] Doral R. Pulley was the first president of the fraternity and Joynce Mungo was the first president of the sorority.[6]

In 1991, Alpha Nu Omega chartered a second chapter at Towson University, followed by Coppin State University in 1992.[1] Eventually, it expanded to 23 chapters, primarily located at historically Black colleges and universities.[1] However, membership is not limited to African American students.[8]
