The Gustavus branch of this social fraternity formed during October 1928. Folders are organized alphabetically.
The Gustavus branch of Epsilon Pi Alpha formed on 10 October 1928. Members known as “Eppies” took part in a number of activities. In past years, the group prided itself on doing the following: beer busts, parties, an autumn pig roast and banquet, UNICEF collection, trips to North Stars games and the Shrine Circus with local kids, rush parties, spring canoe trips and steak frys, Campus Chest activities, participation in I.M.s, taking a summer canoe trip, and THETAS.
