Alpha Epsilon Phi (ΑΕΦ) is a sorority founded by seven Jewish women on the basis of non-discrimination and a member of the National Panhellenic Conference. It was founded on October 24, 1909, at Barnard College in New York City. AEPhi was founded by seven Jewish women; Helen Phillips, Ida Beck, Rose Gerstein, Augustina Hess, Lee Reiss, Rose Salmowitz, and Stella Strauss who felt the need of a sorority at Barnard in those days. Founder Tina Hess Solomon best described the reasons for the founding in a letter written in 1934: "We wanted a group of girls chosen not because of any special scholastic preeminence, financial circumstances or other arbitrary standards but a group who had common interests and were dominated by the ideals of true friendship. The mission of Alpha Epsilon Phi Sorority is to inspire and support exemplary women dedicated to friendship and a lifelong commitment to Alpha Epsilon Phi while building on the vision of our Jewish founders."
