ATO has been back for a little while and arent a "Christian" organization. In order for them to come back on campus they are a dry house but they just built a HUGE house on University between Pi Kappa Phi and Sig Ep

They were kicked off campus sometime in the late 90's or early 2000's and then came back into their house as a dry house. I believe ATO nationals made them do that. I used to go to parties there and it was so weird cause you could bring in drinks and they didn't fuss too bad as long as you sort of hid it in a cup or something.

The ATO house was on fraternity row at UA and was there for a long time. They've just recently built a new house on Old Row, its a huge house.

The ATO's were forced to go "no booze" because their chapter got pulled back in the 90's due to some drug issues. I think they may have even had an incident where some guys were selling blow in the house... i.e. The SAE's at UA back in the 80's.

Once the ATO's got their chapter back, they focused an high academics, and basically zero party's, no booze, no weed or drugs of any kind tolerated. IIRC, the ATO's have ranked among the top GPA of the UA fraternities for the past few years.
