Psi Upsilon
- See also Wikipedia's article about "Psi Upsilon".
Psi Upsilon is a fraternity, once known as being primarily for engineers and computer science majors. In past years, Psi U has been regarded as a somewhat dorky frat; parties featured students walking in to get beer and walking out to leave soon afterwards. Since 2004, the fraternity has been staging a comeback, and its most recent pledge classes have been primarily composed of CC, rather than SEAS, students. One of the most storied fraternities at Columbia, Psi U has produced several distinguished alumni.
The Lambda Chapter of Psi Upsilon is the oldest fraternity on Columbia's campus.
The Lambda house, located at 542 W 114th Street, across from Columbia's Carman dormitory, has been home to the Fraternity since 1952. Psi U is known for its annual 80s Party, an affection for/addiction to hookah, and the owl which sits above its doorway.
