The Aquila Legis Fraternity (ΑLF) is a Filipino fraternity exclusively based in the Ateneo de Manila School of Law in Quezon City, Philippines. Founded by Joaquin Lorenzo E. Misa, the first bossman or "Honorable Praeses" in 1949,[1] it is the first fraternity founded by students, and the first fraternity in the Philippines using Latin nomenclature, preceding several Philippine law-based fraternities with names derived from Latin.
Over the past six decades, the fraternity has inducted over 1,500 members, many of whom eventually rose to public prominence as cabinet secretaries, legislators, justices, ambassadors, business tycoons, and top executives in the business and financial sector.
