Lambda Theta Phi Latin Fraternity, Inc
In 1975, there were no Latino fraternities in existence in the United States. The Greek-letter organizations of the time primarily catered to Anglo and African-American students and graduates. Lambda's founders, as men of vision, realized there was a need to unite the Latino students, develop their leadership skills, impart upon them the value of an education, and instill in them a commitment to their community and culture. The traditional student club would not suffice to accomplish such lofty goals. Hence, Latino unity and brotherhood would be achieved through a long recognized institution-the fraternity. This newest addition to the Greek system would be the first in the nation, by identity and by name: Lambda Theta Phi Latin Fraternity, Incorporated. The ideals of this fraternity include academic excellence, brotherhood, leadership, Latino unity, and service. On a daily basis, our brothers live up to these ideals, as set forth by fourteen young Latino men decades ago. At the undergraduate level, our brothers are active within the Fraternity and in other student organizations. At the professional level, among our ranks you will find attorneys, doctors, and engineers. Our brothers are affecting policy and change as elected officials serving on City Councils, Boards of Education, U.S. House of Representatives, and the U.S. Senate. In short, Lambdas are contributing and excelling in every facet of human endeavor. "En La Union Esta La Fuerza."
