| Chapter History and Summary: |
| The Tau Upsilon Chapter of Alpha Epsilon Pi was originally
founded at Tulane University in 1951. Though AEPi shares a shaky
history with the school, interest in Jewish fraternal life has kept AEPi a
recognizable element in the Tulane community. The most recent colony
was founded in Spring 2000, and moved into a new apartment complex in August
of 2002. Tau Upsilon was additionally regranted its charter and chapter status
nationally in a cerimony taking place on March 15, 2003. Alpha Epsilon Pi is a national college fraternity. Our basic purpose is to provide the opportunity for a Jewish man to be able to join with other men into a Jewish organization whose purpose is not specifically religious, but rather social and cultural in nature. Alpha Epsilon Pi is a Jewish fraternity, though non-discriminatory and open to all who are willing to espouse its purpose and values. Tau Upsilon is the only officially Jewish fraternity on the Tulane campus. |
