The vision for Fraternity and Sorority Life at Virginia Tech is to be a fraternity and sorority community inspiring lifetime engagement in the spirit of Ut Prosim (That I May Serve). The mission of Fraternity and Sorority Life at Virginia Tech is to support and engage members of the fraternity and sorority community by promoting lifelong learning, empowering personal growth, inspiring intellectual development, cultivating leadership, and encouraging philanthropy and service, all through the shared values of brotherhood and sisterhood. During the Spring 2013 semester, the fraternity and sorority community at Virginia Tech encompassed approximately 4,130 students (approximately 18% of the undergraduate student population) through 55 chapters which are organized into four governing councils. During the Spring 2013 semester, the all fraternity and sorority GPA (3.171) was higher than the all undergraduate GPA (3.141).

  • History of Latino Fraternal Movement and Why It Matters on Campus Today Oliver Fajardo, Lambda Theta Phi Fraternity, Inc
    History of Latino Fraternal Movement and Why it Matters on Campus Today Oliver Fajardo, Lambda Theta Phi Fraternity, Inc. Latin@s have been attending colleges and universities in the United States since the late 1700s. The first known international Latin American student to enroll in a U.S. university was Francisco de Miranda when he attended Yale in 1784 (Bevis & Lucas, 2007). Throughout the 1800s, more students from Latin America enrolled in U.S. colleges as compared to Latin@s born in the United States. An example of increased native Latin American enrollment was the University of California – Berkeley that had twelve students from Latin America enrolled in their Fifth Class Program compared to four Latin@s born in California in the 1871-1872 academic school year (Register, 1871). In the late 19th century, a demand in skilled workers for Latin America’s new railroads, waterworks, highways, dams, and canals led to increased enrollment of international students in American colleges (Bevis & Lucas, 2007). These international Latin American students began to congregate and create clubs, societies, and fraternities that brought them together (Fajardo, 2015). The first wave of Latin American fraternities began when international students at Cornell founded Alpha Zeta Fraternity during the 1889-1890 academic year (Alpha Chapter, 1890). Alpha Zeta Fraternity started a movement of organizations that catered to international Latin American students that lasted until the spring of 1975 (Fajardo, 2015). Over a dozen fraternities were founded from California to New York and Kansas to Louisiana. These organizations had several reasons for their existence. Some served as political organizations that wanted to liberate Puerto Rico from the United States, others wanted to unite Latin American countries so that they could stand up to perceived U.S.

Byrd Chi Phi National Headquarters Building 1160 Satellite Blvd. NW, Suwanee, GA 30024 Phone: (404) 2311824 Email: [email protected] Website: www.chiphi.org Published by the National Office of the Chi Phi Fraternity. Copyright © 2020 0 Dear New Member, Congratulations! You are about to embark on a lifelong journey of membership into the oldest and one of the most venerated College fraternities in America. This journey will be filled with numerous lifelong friendships, experiences, and opportunities. Established at the College of New Jersey (later Princeton University) on December 24, 1824, our Fraternity has witnessed our members distinguish themselves in virtually every walk of life. Chi Phi was founded on friendship and for almost two centuries has steadfastly stood for Truth, Honor and Personal Integrity. As members of Chi Phi, we profess and subscribe to a higher form of friendship that we refer to as Brotherhood. Chi Phis are gentlemen who respect and defend the rights of others. We profess a devotion to high moral conduct and responsible citizenship. We are today’s campus leaders and tomorrow’s world leaders. As members of the Fraternity we have a sacred obligation to one another. Membership requires that we demonstrate a spirit of sincerity and respect toward each member. We can be diverse yet be of one heart. We can agree to disagree, but at the end of the day we can still embrace in the spirit of Brotherhood. As in most relationships, the benefit you derive from Chi Phi will be directly proportional to the effort you expend as a member.

  • 1 La Familia: Thoughts on Latinx Interfraternalism Keith D. Garcia
    La Familia: Thoughts on Latinx Interfraternalism Keith D. Garcia | University of Minnesota | @kgarcia_sa It does not take long for research on Latinx fraternal organizations (LFOs) to reveal a level of commonality. Beyond a connection to ethnic identity, many LFOs were founded with the intent of creating unity amongst Latinx people. It’s found in their names, visions, missions and purposes. The following examples, with rough translations, exhibit this concept. Lambda Theta Phi Latin Fraternity, Inc.’s motto is “En la unión está la fuerza” (In unity there is strength) while Lambda Sigma Upsilon Latino Fraternity, Inc.’s letters stand for “Latinos Siempre Unidos” (Latinos Always United). You find it in La Unidad Latina, Lambda Upsilon Lambda Fraternity, Inc.’s motto, “La Unidad Para Siempre” (Unity Forever) and several Latina sororities’ names also espouse this value including Sigma Lambda Upsilon/Señoritas Latinas Unidas Sorority, Inc. (Latina Women United), Lambda Pi Upsilon Sorority, Latinas Poderosas Unidas, Inc. (Empowered Latinas United), and Latinas Promoviendo Comunidad/Lambda Pi Chi Sorority, Inc. (Latinas Promoting Community). One of the oldest LFOs, Phi Iota Alpha Fraternity, Inc., was founded upon and continues to espouse the virtues of Pan-Americanism, the idea that countries in Latin America should be unified. The concept of unity is enshrined in the mission of the National Association of Latino Fraternal Organizations (NALFO) which states “NALFO exists to unite and empower its Latino organizations and their communities through advocacy, cultural awareness, and organizational development while fostering positive inter fraternal relationships and collaborating on issues of mutual interest.” While the concept of unity is ever present within the Latinx fraternal community, it has often been narrow in its application.
