:'''Alpha Upsilon''' celebrates their founder's day weekend the 2ed February of each year.  Most founder's weekends are small, and in the past have not been large ICR based events.  This is due to that years ago, Alpha Upsilon lost a substantial amount of funds while attempting to host a large founder's weekend, which then took years to recover from. In 2009, Alpha Upsilon hosted the [[Southeast Region|Southeast Regional]] Conference, in doing so, they decided not to celebrate their founder's day.  However, due to the chapter's recent growth explosion, '''Alpha Upsilon''' brother's have started to travel to more ICR events.  Consequently, a highly anticipated Founder's weekend is expected to be planned for the chapter's 18th founder's weekend.

The Alpha Upsilon Chapter was founded on February 12, 1992. It is unknown which member or members founded the chapter, but the Alpha class had 93 members inducted between February 12 and April 22.

Early Years

Unfortunately, the chapter does not have much information about its early years. There is no known record of history until Katie McLean created the Chapter History in 2003. What is known of the earlier years has been passed down through stories older brothers have shared with newer brothers.

Since Alpha Upsilon's founding, there have been two mascots. Originally, the chapter mascot was a cow. It is unknown when or why this selection was made, but eventually at another unknown point in time, the mascot was changed to the spider monkey, which it is still currently today.

Tim Bott was either the first president of Alpha Upsilon, the Alpha Class president, or both.

The chapter has had two faculty advisers since its founding: Dr. Timothy Bergen, Jr. and Mrs. Mary Ellen O'Leary, who still currently serves as the faculty advisor (since September 26, 1995).

The Active Chapter

The current chapter has 23 Active Members. The chapter is currently rebuilding its public relations on campus and has started to become a well known organization throughout the USC community. The Brothers of Alpha Upsilon are not only active in their Chapter, but many other organizations on campus. The activities range from honors societies such as Sigma Alpha Lambda, to social sororities and fraternities like Alpha Delta Pi, as well as organizations like Resident Hall Association and House of Delegates. Inter-Chapter Relations are continually improving with events such as Carolina Cup.
