That's probably more an apo-treasurer question, so I added it in case
Nicole has a preference. But basically, anything vaguely sane will work.
"Alpha Phi Omega AX Chapter" is great, but things like "APO", "MIT APO",
"APO Printshop", "APOsterCo", and even "MIT" are going to be considered fine
by the Cashier's Office.
