Character That Leads
with Purpose
At Lambda Chi Alpha, we believe in developing men of strong values, integrity, and courage — leaders who make a difference.
A Legacy Built on Character
Since 1909, Lambda Chi Alpha has redefined fraternity life. We eliminated pledging, focused on personal growth, and promoted inclusive brotherhood. Our founders believed leadership is built on character, guiding our actions through service, scholarship, mentorship, and moral courage.
