The new national headquarters will serve as the central hub for the fraternity’s operations, programming, and outreach, enhancing its ability to serve members nationwide and advance its mission. The new space also allows for collaboration between the National Office and the organization’s student membership, allowing the students to aid in the daily operations of the organization.

“This is a historic day for Alpha Eta Rho,” said Capt. Robert H. Clement, National Chairman of Alpha Eta Rho. “Returning to a dedicated national headquarters for the first time in nearly four decades will strengthen our ability to support chapters, connect students with industry leaders, and inspire the future of aviation.”
