Chapter Colony and Chartering
Texas Tau's roots can be traced back to a small Colony organization, founded on May 25th, 1978. With hopes of becoming a nationally chartered school, the colony focused on member stability and growth. The Colony coordinated with National and Alumni organizations to recruit incoming Texas A&M students. After a couple years of growth, the Colony requested its Charter on October 20th, 1980, which was later approved in 1981.
Chapter Housing History
The first Chapter House was located in Bryan, Texas. The Astin-Porter Home's construction was finished in 1903. It was declared an Official Texas Landmark in 1980. The Chapter leased the house from Fall of 1983 to Summer of 1985.
After an increase in membership, participation and financial stability, the Chapter constructed it's current house in 1999. It's groundbreaking ceremony was held on September 25th, 1999. The current chapter house is located less than 5 minutes away from A&M campus at 985 Luther St W, in College Station, Texas.
