Alpha Theta Mu

**Alpha Theta Mu** is an organization introduced in The Junior, Book 1. It is a "fratority", which is similar to a fraternity or sorority, but is not restricted by gender.

## History

Alpha Theta Mu was originally a fraternity, and one of the oldest at Hartfeld. About sixteen years prior to the events of *The Junior, Book 1*, the fraternity council decided to open up membership in Alpha Theta Mu to all genders.

Earlier in Alpha Theta Mu history, pledges were expected to perform an audacious, but not generally harmful, prank to be initiated. However, according to Sebastian Delacroix, candidates now have to perform an illegal stunt to get into the inner circle of the charter. This is to maintain the secrecy of the fratority and to ensure that if a candidate fails their task, they cannot go to the police, as their crimes will also be exposed.

The presidency of the fratority is also corrupt. Only inner circle members can become president, and the inner circle candidate(s) must perform an extremely illegal and dangerous stunt to do so. This is how Nathan won his presidency: his stunt was to drive though a red light and hit Tyler's car, injuring him seriously.

After Nathan, Beau, and Kassidy are exposed, it is revealed at the end of The Junior, Chapter 13, that Dean Stafford revoked Alpha Theta Mu's charter.
