Alpha Epsilon Phi

Alpha Epsilon Phi Greek letters

Alpha Epsilon Phi was founded in 1909 by seven Jewish women with a vision of creating a sorority that welcomes and supports exceptional women of all backgrounds, interests, and beliefs. Built on a foundation of inclusivity and lifelong sisterhood, Alpha Epsilon Phi continues to empower women to grow as leaders, scholars, and individuals. At the University of Connecticut, our chapter is committed to providing a well-rounded sorority experience for both our collegiate and alumnae members by upholding the values established by our founders. We emphasize sisterhood, community service, academic excellence, and personal growth in all that we do. By celebrating both individuality and unity, we encourage each member to discover and develop her unique talents while cultivating meaningful friendships and a strong sense of family that lasts well beyond college.

Message from the Chapter President

At Alpha Epsilon Phi, our sisterhood is built on a foundation of ambition, compassion, and lifelong connection. Guided by our values of innovation, character, and generosity, our members are committed to excelling academically, uplifting one another, and making a meaningful impact both on campus and beyond. Our chapter takes great pride in giving back to our community and supporting the Alpha Epsilon Phi Foundation through our philanthropic initiatives. Every day, I witness AEΦ women lead with confidence, kindness, and purpose, and I am incredibly proud to be part of such a driven and supportive sisterhood. Through my time in Alpha Epsilon Phi, I have formed lifelong friendships with women who challenge me to grow and embody the values of our organization in all that they do. I cannot imagine my college experience without AEΦ, and I am truly honored to serve as Chapter President for such an inspiring chapter.

President: Erin Reyes
