Welcome to the Brothers of the Wind (BOW)

Welcome to the Brothers of the Wind (BOW) website! The African-American student organization started at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University's Daytona Beach campus in 1974. Now, we are a not-for-profit association re-organized under section 501(c)(3) in 2011 to enhance, advance, and promote education and career opportunities in aviation and aerospace. Our association is open to all Embry-Riddle alumni and friends of BOW, and aviation and aerospace professionals worldwide.

"We entered Embry-Riddle with determination to accomplish and endure the right for recognition. We searched endless days for notification. We wanted unity in the form of an organization."
