But overall, it is still in nice shape Here is some more information about this WOMAN'S FRATERNITY of ALPHA PHI Alpha Phi (ΑΦ) fraternity for women founded at Syracuse University on September 30, 1872. Its celebrated Founders Day is October 10. It was the third Greek-letter organization founded for women. In Alpha Phi the Greek letter Phi is pronounced "Fee". It is a common misconception that this pronunciation is because Phi follows the vowel Alpha. However, the pronunciation of Phi as "Fee" rather than "Fi" actually results from the fact that the organization adopted the Greek rather than anglicized, mainly American, pronunciation of the letter because it sounded more feminine. Purpose The objectives of our Fraternity are the promotion of growth character; unity of feeling, sisterly affection, and social communion among our members. In all that we do, we try to obey God�s principles of justice and right. We have banded ourselves together to improve our minds and hearts, and we seek to aid each other through a constant watch care always given in love. We believe ourselves to be sincere searchers for truth. We seek the highest ideal of womanhood, and we try to gain this ideal by cultivating not only the power and passion for seeking intellectual development but, also, the spirit of love and charity. And we who are thus united are under a solemn pledge to lend a helping hand to one another. – Constitution of Alpha Phi International Fraternity, Incorporated, Article II University of Illinois chapter house, listed on the National Register of Historic Places "Alpha Phi is unlike any other organization you will ever join.
