ATO Sentenced in Furnishing Case
The Collegian is reporting that one month after being found guilty of furnishing alcohol to minors Alpha Tau Omega fraternity was sentenced to pay a $500 fine and serve community service.
The misdemeanor charge stems from the September 19, 2009 evening in which freshman Joe Dado was found dead in an exterior stairwell between Hosler and Steidle buildings. This is the second misdemeanor furnishing charge brought against Alpha Tau Omega by the Centre County District attorney. The first charge was dismissed last July.
