Alpha Phi - Greek Life

ALPHA PHI (Aɸ)

About

At the Iota Zeta chapter of Alpha Phi, we are proud to uphold our core values: generosity, innovation, character, and a lifelong bond of sisterhood. These pillars guide us in everything we do, from supporting one another on campus, to giving back through service and philanthropy!

Each year, we actively support the Alpha Phi Foundation, with a strong focus on raising awareness and funds for women’s heart health! We are equally dedicated to making a difference within our campus and local community through service, leadership, and meaningful involvement!

As Orediggers and Alpha Phis, we are passionate about creating a welcoming, empowering environment where members can grow, lead, and thrive. Our chapter is more than just a sisterhood, it’s a community built on purpose, pride, and a shared commitment to excellence!

deia position statement

The Iota Zeta Chapter of Alpha Phi values sisterhood that lasts a lifetime, the value of scholarship, service performed hand and hand and heart to heart, the pioneering of leadership, the bond of loyalty, and high expectations for character development. Members of Alpha Phi are neither selected nor rejected based upon age, religion, individual political affiliation, race, national origin, sexual orientation, or disability. Membership in Alpha Phi is open to any individual who identifies as a woman by the Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972. The Iota Zeta Chapter of Alpha Phi strives to form this unique sisterhood, which is rooted in our pillars but strengthened in the relationships built, through the opportunity of each potential new member going through formal recruitment.
