The Alpha Delta Pi Sorority House is one of the eight small houses on Sorority Hill, located on the north side of campus.

The building originally housed members of the Caroline Belvin Society (commonly known as the CB's), one of the literary societies that existed on campus after the turn of the century.

The literary society existed until 1959 when the members became the charter members of the Gamma Rho chapter of Alpha Delta Pi.
