Alpha Tau OmegaAlpha Tau Omega National Fraternity Brief history of Alpha Tau Omega:
Alpha Tau Omega was founded by three cadets at the Virginia Military Institute in Lexington, Virginia. ATO was the first fraternity created immediately after the Civil War in 1865 with the primary purpose of reuniting the North and South among college men. The Fraternitys founders believed their effort would be successful only if members lived by Judeo-Christian principles upon which the Fraternity is based. Today, Alpha Tau Omega is considered Americas Leadership Development Fraternity, we have over 140,000 living alumni and more than 6,500 undergraduate members in over 140 chapters across the nation. These men have chosen to be brothers by choice based on their merits as men of character. - -Excerpt from www.joinato.org
Creed of Alpha Tau Omega:
To bind men together in a brotherhood based upon eternal and immutable principles, with a bond as strong as right itself, and as lasting as humanity; to know no north, no south, no east, no west, but to know man as man, to teach that true men the world over should stand together and contend for supremacy of good over evil; to teach not politics, but morals; to foster not partisanship, but the recognition of true merit wherever found; to have no narrower limits within which to work together for the elevation of man than the outlines of the world; these were the thoughts and hopes uppermost in the minds of the founders of the Alpha Tau Omega Fraternity. - -Otis Allan Glazebrook, 1880
