About Epsilon Beta

Our mission, values, and the principles that define the Epsilon Beta Chapter of Lambda Theta Phi Latin Fraternity, Inc.

Our Purpose

The Mission of Lambda

Lambda Theta Phi Latin Fraternity, Inc. was established to provide a positive organization for Latino men in higher education — one that fosters academic achievement, cultural awareness, community engagement, and an unwavering brotherhood.

The Epsilon Beta Chapter lives this mission every day. We are a chapter built on the backs of men who refused to be invisible — men who chose to build something greater than themselves.

We exist to develop the whole man: academic, professional, cultural, and personal. Our fraternity is not just an organization you join — it is a standard you rise to meet.

"The Mission of Lambda Theta Phi to empower the Latin male through scholarship, Brotherhood, opportunity, and protection of identity and equality."

What We Live By

Our Core Values

Academic Excellence

Academic success is a non-negotiable value of Lambda Theta Phi. We support each other through rigorous coursework and hold a chapter GPA standard that reflects our commitment to excellence.

Service

We believe in giving back — to our campus, our local community, and the broader Latino community. Service is not optional; it is who we are.

Leadership

Lambda brothers are expected to lead — in classrooms, in career, and in community. We develop confident, principled leaders through every experience in our chapter.

Latino Unity

We are proud of our Latino roots. We actively celebrate and protect our culture, our history, and the identity of every brother who walks through our door.

Brotherhood

The bonds formed in Lambda are lifelong. Through shared experience, accountability, and genuine care for one another, our brotherhood is built to last far beyond any campus.

Integrity

We hold ourselves to the highest ethical standard — in how we treat people, carry ourselves publicly, and represent the Lambda name every single day.
