UofA ATO

Alpha Tau Omega

Fraternity
Love & Respect
The Alpha Tau Omega fraternity (or "Aytoes" in school lingo) have made their place in the university's Greek society history, though probably not for the reason they wanted. It was an ATO who committed suicide the first year of the chapter's existence, leading the university to revising the charters for all their Greek societies to require Resident Advisors in each of the Houses. Under the current president, the ATOs have worked hard to redeem that reputation with public works, although a recent tragedy at the Bonfire Party has dealt the chapter another setback in terms of their reputation. Already people are starting to whisper about the "ATO Curse".

• Chapter President: Deacon Alders. Engineering Major (Senior), Baseball player. Deacon's known around campus as kind of stuck-up dick, but also as someone who takes the running of the ATOs very seriously, and does his job well.
• Resident Advisor: Stella Jalo. An Astoria local, the widow of an APD cop killed in the line of duty. Everyone in the ATOs calls her "Mama J," and she's widely regarded as the coolest and most chill of the Greek society RAs. She's also the first
• Campus Reputation: The ATOs have a reputation as housing athletes and engineers. The majority of their membership play on sports teams, and they have the reputation as the "jock" fraternity on campus. As such, they've got an accompanying reputation as the "rough and tumble" guys, and a (mostly) undeserved reputation as bullys and assholes.
• Rush Events: For Rush, the ATOs often sponsor big kitchen walk-through buffet dinners, and laid-back parties. They are also the ones to usually organize sporting events - usually pitting their membership against that of other fraternities - with free admission as events.
