Back in 2016,

at a similar AGM, the Association restructured itself by amending its by-laws that govern how it operated. With the new by-laws the AOAG became a not-for-profit company. Additionally, with that restructuring, the Art Williams and Harry Wendt Aeronautical Engineering School (AWHWAES) got their own Board and will function as for-profit companies.
