Trap House

The unofficial Fraternity house of the Iota Upsilon chapter of Alpha Epsilon Pi (the Jewish Fraternity). It is located at the University of Iowa in Iowa City, right across the street from the President's house. The appearance of the house is that of a rundown grayish century home. The parties take place in a space that could be better defined as a Machiavellian dungeon than a basement. It is common to find brothers of the Chapter urinate outside during parties, so as to accommodate the very few attractive girls in attendance who may wish to use the only bathroom. The garage is often kept unlocked, which is very stupid as the Chapter's beer and hard seltzer reserves are typically stored there.

Historically, the Trap House and the Chapter served as the primary point of cocaine distribution in the University throughout the mid to late 20th century. The 'dungeon' was once put to use not only for partying, but also for the pseudo-torture of pledges. The chapter no longer hazes pledges.

The Trap House is not owned by the Fraternity, nor is it even leased by the Chapter. Rather, a select group of 2-5 brothers volunteer to rent the house from Prestige Properties every year. Prestige Properties is a component of the Iowa City based 'Cabal' which holds a monopoly on rented housing (rumors abound that the Cabal once had, or still has, ties with the Capra-Patterson Syndicate; some instead suggest a connection with a Boston outfit named the 'Black Hand').
