Welcome to Our House
In Alpha Phi, we are so lucky to be in a community that generates a special place of belonging. The Alpha Phi house fosters a warm and welcoming home for students at MIT; daily acts of kindness, consideration, and support highlight the unique and inspiring qualities among members. This supportive environment provides a space for students to connect, grow, and create lasting memories outside of the classroom!
We have a TV room, dining room, parlor room, and chapter room where sisters hang out or do work together. We also have a study where sisters can go to if they need to work in a quiet space, and a gym with a stationery bike and some other workout equipment.
Located in Back Bay near Fenway Stadium, our house is a historic brownstone central to our activities at Alpha Phi.
We take safety and security very seriously at the Alpha Phi house. We always improve our systems and procedures whenever we can. All house entrances require a door code to enter and are monitored with cameras. Each member has a unique code, and members are fined if they share their code with anyone else. We do this to guarantee only members have access to the house. Our House Director Catherine lives in our house and is normally around to answer the door, receive mail and packages, and observe who enters and leaves our house. If she sees anything suspicious, she reports it immediately. Additionally, all guests in our house must be greeted at the door, escorted, and walked out the door by the member they are visiting. This ensures guests never walk around the house alone and don’t have door code access.
