Alpha Gamma Rho: A Legacy of Leadership and Brotherhood
On April 4, 1908, the National Fraternity of Alpha Gamma Rho was born from the merger of two local fraternities—Alpha Gamma Rho, founded at The Ohio State University in 1904, and Delta Rho Sigma, founded at the University of Illinois in 1906. This union was built on a shared vision of creating an organization that would stand for honor, integrity, and excellence. As Brother Poston, a charter member from Ohio State, said, the goal was for Alpha Gamma Rho to represent "all that is honorable and just" across agricultural colleges.
Since its founding, Alpha Gamma Rho has expanded far beyond its initial expectations, impacting the lives of thousands of young men and elevating their social, academic, professional, and personal growth. The fraternity's four pillars—recruitment, commitment, education, and recognition—form the bedrock of its success and legacy.
One of the most significant milestones for our Alpha Beta Chapter came on December 6, 1924, when the Kai Tal club was granted chapter status and officially became Alpha Gamma Rho Alpha Beta Chapter. Our chapter house, located at 331 NW 26th Street in Corvallis since 1952, has seen countless brothers mature and grow in its halls. Many areas of the house are dedicated to those who have made lasting contributions to Alpha Gamma Rho, honoring their dedication and spirit.
As AGR's early Grand President, S.K. Bjoronson of North Dakota, once said, “I want her men to be leaders of the future...the strongest of character and the most honorable and resolute of the times.” These values continue to guide us as brothers live by the Brotherhood Covenant—an oath of integrity and commitment that each member pledges upon initiation.
Alpha Gamma Rho remains a brotherhood founded on these timeless principles, empowering young men to become leaders in their communities, careers, and beyond.
