Chapter Beginnings

Epsilon Upsilon Chapter was installed at Columbia University in New York City in 1986. Columbia — founded as King’s College in 1754 — is the fifth oldest college in the United States. Theta had founded a chapter at Columbia’s sister college, Barnard, in 1897, but withdrew when the campus environment changed 15 years later. The Fraternity was pleased to return to a now coeducational university.

Notable Thetas

From the very beginning, Theta alumnae have distinguished themselves in their careers and their volunteer endeavors. In fact, some are so well-known that they’re household names, and many have the distinction of being the first women in their professional fields. The archives takes this opportunity to recognize some of our more notable sisters.
