ALPHA TAU CHAPTER
The Alpha Tau Chapter of Alpha Chi Omega has been on the campus of UNH for many years. We have definitely made a legacy we are proud of. We officially become a chapter on June 24, 1924 and we have been a huge part of campus ever since.
Since Alpha Tau has been on campus we've made a lasting impression on the community by supporting our philanthropy by hosting events and being well rounded, smart women who have set standards high for achieving great grades within not only Greek life, but the entire UNH student body.
