Lambda Theta Phi Latin Fraternity, Inc. was founded on December 1, 1975 at Kean University in Union, New Jersey. We are the FIRST Latin fraternity in the nation. Lambda Theta Phi's goals are to promote scholarship, Latin unity, respect for all cultures and brotherhood. Lambda Theta Phi has set out to accomplish these goals through responsible political and social action. At the moment, we are opposing the Univision/HBC merger that will monopolize Spanish speaking media. A press conference was held at The National Press Club yesturday by our National Board to oppose the FCC's approval of the merger.

The Oldest, The Largest, The Best
The originators of the Latino Greek movement.
Influencing other orgs since 1975.

Fraternal Motto: "En La Union, Esta La Fuerza"

Colors: Brown and White

Nickname: Lambdas
(note: Since 1975, Lambda Theta Phi Hermanos have been known as Lambdas. In the 1980's and 1990's, with the emergence of younger Latino greek organizations, others have used the term to refer to themselves due to the lack of thourough research.)

Your claim to being the FIRST is absurd.
Do you just forget to research the Sigma Iota, Phi Lambda Alpha, or Pi Delta Phi?
They were really the firsts, even though they were not in existence at the time of the founding of Lambda Theta Phi.
These organizations did merge to become Phi Iota Alpha in 1931.
Yes Lambda Theta Phi was the first to be recognized by NIC, but then you can only use those that for your claim.

This thread is from 2003. The poster hasn't logged in since October 2003. Chances are he won't see your response.

You know the "who's the first" debate is never going to die. Just do you and be happy with that.
