Creed

We believe in Lambda Chi Alpha, and its traditions, principles, and ideals. The crescent is our symbol; pure, high, and ever growing, and the cross is our guide; denoting service, sacrifice, and even suffering and humiliation before the world, bravely endured if need be, in following that ideal.

May we have faith in Lambda Chi Alpha, and passion for its welfare. May we have hope for the future of Lambda Chi Alpha, and strength to fight for its teachings. May we have pure hearts, that we may approach the ideal, of perfect brotherly love.

Why Join Lambda Chi Alpha?

 
BROTHERHOOD  
Good friends, forever. Because of the variety of things you do together, you get to know each other really well. Fraternities are often accused of being full of the same kind of people. The reality is that nowhere else can a man get to know as many different men as well as he can in his fraternity. There are also opportunities for making friends on other campuses among the other men with whom you share Lambda Chi Alpha - Regional Conferences, International Conventions, or just a visit to another chapter. Lambda Chi is basically a group of good friends, living, working, studying and having a good time together.

 

JOB ADVANTAGES
Recruiters know that the fraternity experience prepares a man for success. Although fraternity alumni number less than 2% of the population, they make up 52% of the U.S. Senate, 33% of the House of Representatives and 75% of the top executives of the 500 largest business corporations. Alumni often help a brother get a job.
SOCIAL EXPERIENCES
No other college lifestyle offers the variety of social life that fraternities can. This social experience leads to the ability to handle yourself with confidence in all kinds of social situations.
PRESTIGE

James Wells was the 2006 Southeast Missouri State Man of the Year as well as the 2007 Greek Man of the Year.

Lambda Chi Alpha has a long tradition and deep heritage. It is a group with which to identify and of which to be proud.

 

 

PERSONAL GROWTH  
Lambda Chi Alpha will give you the chance to learn the value of teamwork; to learn leadership by doing; to develop a sense of responsibility by taking it on. Fine-tune your professional skills: organization, follow-through, speaking and making presentations in front of groups. Lambda Chi Alpha provides the opportunity to learn from the advice and experiences of older brothers and your alumni. It is a place to go for help with your problems.
SCHOLASTIC ADVANTAGES
Worried about your GPA? Greeks at Southeast Missouri State on average have a higher grade point average than the whole campus combined. Lambda Chi Alpha has standards of academic excellence and we make sure that all brothers keep their grades up. At Lambda Chi Alpha, you get advice and tutoring from older brothers who know the courses and the professors.
ASSOCIATE VS PLEDGE  
What is an "Associate Member"?

The most commonly practiced theory of new member education is "pledge training." The labeling is remarkable accurate and implies its inherent fallacies. Certainly by the end of the period, the pledge is well-"trained"-- but will he made a good and resourceful active fraternity member, brother, and gentleman?

Since 1972, we at Lambda Chi Alpha have determined to hold "fraternity education" as our ideal. The new member is assigned a trained, knowledgeable Big Brother who guides him through a program of carefully designed education. Instead of being alienated, he is acculturated; rather than a becoming a target of tawdry traditions, he is brought into noble ones.Of course, social situations aside, an A.M. is not a brother, and "no hazing" does not mean a new member's responsibilities are treated lightly. But by treating our little brothers with respect from day one, we hope to bring about a better active member as well as a more mature fraternity system.
