Our ten founders were pioneers of the coeducational system at a time when society said women did not need higher education. Facing such opposition, our founders sought support from each other and formed Alpha Phi in 1872 at Syracuse University.

Alpha Phi's colors are silver and bordeaux, and its symbols include the Phi Bear and the ivy leaf. Alpha Phi enhances and promotes each member's development and learning by focusing on sisterhood, service, scholarship, leadership, loyalty, and character development.

Today, our sisterhood stretches from coast to coast through 160 collegiate campuses and includes more than 200,000 members. Sisters in Alpha Phi share a commitment to excellence and a strong desire to help one another and their communities.

Our chapter was first colonized as a local sorority, but became an international Alpha Phi chapter in 1996. To this day, our chapter is comprised of the highest caliber of women, each member diverse and unique, but bonded together in sisterhood.
