After an absence of 18 years, LSU has invited Alpha Tau Omega back onto campus. The Epsilon Zeta chapter will be recolonized in 2017.
To support this effort, Baton Rouge-area alumni have formed an alumni advisory board. Members include Cliff Mount, David Laxton, David Chauvin, Scott Smith, Shawn Edwards, and Matt Caillouet, representing a broad cross-section of age and initiation year.
