Alpha Sigma Phi - Berkeley, CA - Fraternity and Sorority Houses on Waymarking.com

"The Atherton Club, from which Nu Chapter of Alpha Sigma Phi originated, developed in 1901 as an eating club of about a dozen Cal students who boarded together at the Pacific Theological Seminary in Berkeley. Friendships developed in this informal setting and social and activities were undertaken. By the fall of 1904 the group had coalesced and organized itself as a local social fraternity. A reunion program from 1928 indicates that the name "Atherton Club" came from the location of Club's first house, on Atherton Street, in 1903. Initial board bills were $16.00 per month. The purpose of the club, as stated in its Constitution of 1904, was -- "to promote the good fellowship which is to be gained by the association of congenial persons of kindred aims and like ideals, and to obtain all the other advantages pertaining to such association."
