Mu Tau Chapter
Mu Tau Chapter
Our brownstone is home to a close group of accomplished Jewish men. Our brothers are talented athletes, musicians, engineers and leaders of various campus political, technical, artistic and religious groups.
We have an active social calendar including parties, sorority mixers, and weekly study breaks with delicious home-baked treats, but we still have had enough time to consistently rank first among fraternity GPAs.
It’s the late-night discussions, foosball tournaments, jam sessions, and the individual characters that make this fraternity great and something to be proud of. Come take a look: you’ll like what you see.

We live in a beautiful four-story brownstone house in Boston’s historic Back Bay. Accomodations include many big-screen TVs, ping-pong and foosball tables, a piano, a large kitchen, and much more. We have a kosher chef who prepares meals most days of the week.
Brothers remain extraordinarily active inside and outside the house. When not running fraternity affairs, brothers in recent years have held such positions as IFC vice president; Hillel president, vice president, secretary, and treasurer; and even UA president. Our intramural sports teams have enjoyed great success lately in billiards and bowling, with other active teams in hockey, softball, frisbee, water polo, badminton, unihoc, and more; while the varsity crew, volleyball, sailing, skiing, and swim teams have all benefitted from our athletic prowess. We also show great diversity academically, with brothers studying in more than a dozen different departments and excelling in each.
But we also know how to have a good time. We have frequent social events such as our weekly Cider Night, home of our legendary banana bread; large events such as 007 parties, pirate parties, and highlighter parties; private date events such as Halloween parties and semiannual formals; mixers with local sororities; brothers-only retreats; and spontaneous trips and study breaks whenever we need a break from the rigors of MIT. We even have a hot tub!
Alpha Epsilon Pi is the only remaining national Jewish fraternity. The brothers of the Mu Tau (MIT) chapter are all proud of our heritage and practice to varying degrees, but we are a secular chapter. We have many close ties with Hillel and host occasional events for the MIT community like a Passover seder and the breaking of the fast after Yom Kippur. AEPi, in both the MIT chapter and the international fraternity, does not discriminate by religion or in any other way.

We Give Back to the Community
We Give Back to the Community
Our goal is to raise $5,000 for Save a Child’s Heart (www.saveachildsheart.org), a humanitarian project that pays for sick children from developing countries to receive life-saving heart surgeries in Israel. The project also provides training programs for medical personnel in developing countries. All doctors and personnel work as volunteers.
If we achieve our goal of raising $5,000, our local alumni will donate an additional $5,000 to Save a Child’s Heart, doubling the impact of your tax-deductible donation. $10,000 is enough to cover all the expenses associated with a child’s heart surgery.
We at MIT AEPi are very committed to reaching our goal. For months, we’ve been planning an awesome fundraising event. On May 9th our efforts will culminate in PIE, an event in which student leaders (ourselves included!) will get pied in the face to raise money for and awareness of Save a Child’s Heart.
PIE will take place in front of the Student Center on May 9. Look out for us in the Student Center and Lobby 10 in the weeks leading up to our fundraiser!
Please visit our donation page at tinyurl.com/PIEDonation.
Any donation is hugely appreciated and will get us closer to saving a child’s life.
If you have any questions about our campaign or Save a Child’s Heart, we would love to hear from you! Feel free to contact us at aepi-philanthropy@mit.edu.
Thank you for helping save a child’s heart!
