The Iota Nu Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Incorporated has made immeasurable impact across the state of Alabama and throughout the nation! Seated at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB), the 409th House of Alpha was chartered on October 11th, 1974, by thirteen revolutionary men - our "Mini Jewels" - colloquially known as The Baker's Dozen. Together, these men had a vision to transform the campus of UAB and the city of Birmingham. They ignited a flame of excellence and distinction that has been the mantra of this chapter since its inception.

Hailing from the Iota Nu chapter are several changemakers and pioneers in their own right in the fields of medicine, finance, education, science, and entertainment.
