Biggest Meme on Campus

Every Spring, the APOEZ chapter hosts a large-scale fundraising effort for non-profit organizations both locally and nationwide. In this competition, campaigners advocate for their non-profit of choice through postering, tabling, and making some noise. The month of fundraising is ended with debates, the last chance for the RPI community to vote on who they believe is the winner of the biggest meme on campus! All money donated goes to charities.

Every Spring leading up to and during GM Week

Overnighter

Every semester, the APOEZ chapter picks a weekend and stays "overnight" at a local camp to assist in facilities maintenance. Common activities include painting, picking up trash alongside trails, drilling, putting together beds, and cleaning.
