When author Frederick M Gross began his “dogging” days in Oceanside, New York, in February of 1978, Alpha Omega Theta was already a powerful brotherhood with multiple chapters in New York and Connecticut There was a lot of turmoil and violence involving fraternities in the 1970’s-90’s. Fraternities were banned in Long Island high schools and declared to be gangs by local police. Public perception was negative, but Frederick M  Gross states with pride that Alpha Omega Theta Fraternity turned young men into outstanding adults—with a combined roster of doctors, lawyers, accountants, contractors, businessmen, proprietors, military men, athletes politicians, and even Hollywood stars.

Frederick M Gross delivers a remarkable history of the fraternity’s humble beginnings and violent end. After the fraternity began in 1946, the founders’ were determined to spread Alpha Omega Theta to the world. Two years after their founding, the brotherhood had become a non-profit corporation with a rapidly expanding membership roster. Today, the fraternities’ alumni frequently meet and plan Alpha Omega Theta’s place in the 21st century. They just had their Grand Chapter Reunion in 2007 which was attended by two hundred alumni spanning six decades. For more information, log on to http://www.FraternalBrotherhood.com
