In regards to this event\u2019s success, National ATO president Henry Eaton Busch expressed his admiration for the class and dignity expressed by the IU chapter.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe, the national leaders of ATO, are heartened to see our IU chapter espouse the core values of philanthropy and respect for women that we as a national organization pride ourselves on. At the same time, they\u2019re also supporting small businesses and giving women the opportunity to pursue a higher education.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to ATO IU chapter president, Chad Dickerson, the philanthropy event has already raised more than $3,000 in sticky singles, 100 percent of which will be going directly into the girls\u2019 undergarments. Dickerson went on to respond to H.E. Busch\u2019s praise, stating, \u201cAbove everything else, we here at ATO are real proud to be a brotherhood, and though it may be a <em>pain in the ass<\/em> sometimes, we\u2019ve got a reputation to uphold.\u201d\u00a0 He continued, with a smirk, \u201cAnd if there\u2019s ever a girl out there who\u2019s been down on her luck and has to make ends meet, she should give us a call. The brotherhood will take <em>good<\/em> care of her.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As a final thought, ATO brother Jake Stallworth voiced his admiration for the event. \u201cThe philanthropic event was truly life changing. Usually when you\u2019re coming face to face with this kinda charity work, you could start getting depressed, and feel like ya gotta escape, and close yourself off. However, this time, it was absolutely impossible to run away.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was absolutely eye opening,\u201d he concluded, pulling a stray pube off of his tongue.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By: Bismo Falcor BLOOMINGTON, IN\u2014Last week, Alpha Tau Omega melted everyone\u2019s hearts by helping struggling women pay their way through college in a recent philanthropy event.
