Sisterhood
Alpha Phi was founded by ten women, at Syracuse University in 1872. When they were denied entrance into men's fraternities, they decided to create their own and begin a path of sisterhood and friendship. At Alpha Phi, we uphold the traditions started by these ten remarkable women. While we live in the present, our past traditions bind us all together.
Pioneering Spirit
Since her inception, Alpha Phi has been a leader in the Greek community, largely due to her emphasis on innovative improvement. Alpha Phi’s founders encouraged one another to think, invent and improve. This pioneering spirit can be seen throughout Alpha Phi history and today, in our founding, in developing new chapters and in celebrating one of the many Alpha Phi firsts.
Caring
Alpha Phis grow and learn from those around us. Members are encouraged to mentor, partner with and learn from fellow sisters to help future Alpha Phis grow – in effect strengthening our sisterhood.
Scholarship
Alpha Phi’s founders were ten of the first women to enter Syracuse University in 1872. These women valued their education above societal expectations and shared the desire to acquire knowledge and education. This is a value that all Alpha Phis still share today.
