The Alpha Upsilon Chapter was originally established July 7, 1946 and is the oldest collegiate chapter in the Western Region. As a citywide chapter, Alpha Upsilon was chartered in Southern California, bringing in a plethora of exceptional brothers who would eventually branch off and be influential in the establishment of Nu Upsilon Chapter at the University of Southern California. The chapter was rechartered at the California State University, Dominguez Hills, where it has received various forms of recognition by local and state officials and is highly respected throughout its community.
