ALPHA TAU OMEGA ATO was founded by Otis Allan Glazebrook, Erskine Mayo Ross and Alfred Marshall, at the Virginia Military Institute in 1865 upon Christian-not Greek-principles. ATO was not established in imitation of or in opposition to any existing fraternity. The ATO Foundation was officially recognized in June of 1935 at the 34th Congress in Memphis, Tenn. ATO was the first fraternity founded after the Civil War in 1865, striving to heal the wounds created by the devastating war and help reunite the North and South. ATO was the first fraternity founded as a national fraternity. The first meeting of ATO was at 114 E. Clay St. in Richmond, Va., where Glazebrook read the Constitution of ATO to Marshall and Ross for the first time. The first chapter north of the Mason-Dixon line, was chartered at the University of Pennsylvania 16 years after the founding of ATO, helping to bring a realization to the founders' dreams. In 1880, the ATO chapter at the University of the South (Sewanee) became the first of any fraternity in the South to have a chapter house. ATO's first fraternity west of the Rockies and first of any fraternity in the Northwest was at Oregon State University in 1882. The ATO Badge was designed by Otis Allan Glazebrook in 1865 and is worn by the initiate. The Grand Seal was painted in 1872 by VMI Arts Instructor Richard N. Burke. The White Tea Rose became the ATO Flower in 1892. The Coat of Arms was redesigned and approved by committee in 1910. The ATO Flag was designed by William C. Smiley and approved in 1914.
