Alpha
Tau Omega is a group of men that, like our creed states,
have come together to form "a brotherhood based
upon eternal and immutable principals, with a bond as
strong as right itself and as lasting as humanity.
"The
Alpha Tau Omega fraternity was formed in 1865 at the
Virginia Military Institute, and was the first fraternity
to be founded as a national fraternity. Alpha Tau Omega
(ATO) was also the first fraternity founded after the
Civil War, the first fraternity based on Christian,
not Greek, principals, and the first fraternity founded
north of the Mason-Dixon Line. Here at Adrian College,
the fraternity has remained a vital part of the campus
since 1881. The ATO chapter founded here at Adrian College
is the fourth oldest of all ATO chapters in the country.
On campus, the brothers of ATO are active and involved
in many campus activities.
ATO
brothers can be found involved in the Student Government
Association, the College World newspaper, the Department
of Safety, theater productions, the Campus Activities
Network, Resident Life, WVAC, intramural sports, various
philanthropic events, as well as other organizations
and activities.
The
brothers of the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity feel that
we have a lot to offer prospective members and students,
both in campus living and in life. Leadership skills,
academic success, and brotherhood are just a few of
the benefits of being an ATO. We cordially invite you
to stop by our chapter house at 1215 Michigan Avenue,
located across the street from Stevens and Feeman hall.
