Psi Upsilon is a fraternity, once known as being primarily for engineers and computer science majors. Since 2004, the fraternity has been staging a comeback, and its most recent pledge classes have been primarily composed of CC, rather than SEAS, students. One of the most storied fraternities at Columbia, Psi U has produced several distinguished alumni, including several members of the Columbia Board of Trustees.

Founded on June 25, 1842, the Lambda Chapter of Psi Upsilon is the oldest continuous fraternity on Columbia's campus. Although Alpha Delta Phi was founded earlier (in 1836), it has since become more of a literary society.

The Lambda house, located at 542 W 114th Street, across from Columbia's Carman dormitory, has been home to the Fraternity since 1952. Previously, Psi U was housed in 627 W. 115th Street, in the building that Zeta Beta Tau now calls home today. Psi U is known for its annual 80s Party, an affection for/addiction to hookah, the excellent bartending abilities of its brothers, and the owl which sits above its doorway.
