Respect the Origin – Know the Truth Behind Our Seal!
Many members of Alpha Kappa Rho may not know the historical account behind the modern AKRHO seal that has been used by countless chapters worldwide for more than two decades.
According to testimonies from senior Skeptrons who witnessed this part of our history, the modern seal design was created in the year 2000 by Brod Michael “Mykez” Perez. This version of the seal was first used on fraternity shirts of USC Alpha Chapter and Rho Alpha Chapter in Cebu. From there, the design began circulating and eventually became the most widely used AKRHO seal globally.
However, despite its massive influence on the fraternity’s identity, proper recognition has rarely been given to its creator. Some even question its origin, but brods who were present during that era confirm that it was indeed Mykez Perez who designed this version of the seal.
Historical accounts also state that in 2001, Brod Michael “Mykez” Perez and Brod Ermin “Erwin” Yniesta produced the first bronze AKRHO keychain featuring the same seal. During that time, a legal document was signed near the Cebu Provincial Capitol affirming their authorship and intellectual rights to the design.
This post is not meant to create conflict, division, or claim superiority. Instead, it is shared to preserve historical accuracy and to give proper acknowledgment to our fellow Skeptrons who contributed to the legacy of our fraternity.
✅ This is about respect.
✅ This is about truth.
✅ This is about honoring our history.
Let us remain united as one brotherhood by giving credit where it is due and teaching the next generation of Skeptrons to respect originality and protect the integrity of our seal.
🐎🐉 Long Live Alpha Kappa Rho!
🔥 Once a Skeptron, Always a Skeptron!
