Alpha Tau Omega
On
November 15, 1893 seven men were initiated into the newly formed
Indiana Gamma Gamma chapter of Alpha Tau Omega at Rose-Hulman
Institute of Technology. The founder of our house was Ferdinand
Elbert Smith, Jr. initiated in 1890 into the Alabama Beta Beta
Chapter at Southern University. The first initiate was William O.
Mundy, and our official charter was signed on January 8, 1894 by
E.J. Shives, Worthy Grand Chief, and Otis Allen Glazebrook,
Chairman of the High Council. Since the first seven members, more
than 1700 men have been initiated in Indiana Gamma Gamma.
Today, the Indiana Gamma Gamma chapter is a diverse group of
well-rounded young men dedicated to leadership development,
involvement in on-campus and off-campus activities, community
service, scholarship, and generally having a great time at the
house with the brothers as a way to 'get away' from the intense
Rose-Hulman scholastic environment. We strive to represent
ourselves well on campus and also to provide a great environment
during our Rose-Hulman careers. An added benefit of ATO at
Rose-Hulman is our extensive alumni network, often aiding brothers
in obtaining jobs and internships as well as funding major house
improvements.
