					As with most Greek-letter organizations, in order to gain membership into our brotherhood, our pledges must successfully complete the Fraternity’s induction process. The Lambda Theta Phi process is unique, educational and spiritually uplifting. Although much of the ritual is confidential, the Lambda initiation consists of many components. To mention a few, during this period, the prospective brother learns more in depth about the Latino culture and about our Fraternity’s history. Our initiates perform community service and participate in other types of educational and cultural programs. Our Conquistadores learn the art of “saluting”, as the Lambdas do not “step.” Finally, the induction process serves as the conduit to establish those fraternal bonds, which makes us a brotherhood. Equally important to the above, during the induction process at the undergraduate level, our pledges are required to attend the library on a daily basis for a designated number of hours. The primary purpose in being in college is to obtain an education and graduate. Throughout the process, the Lambda pledge is referred to as a Conquistador. The term was selected in anticipation of the Fraternity’s first pledge line in the spring of 1978. In spite of the Conquistador’s place in history, the term was selected due to the literal meaning of the term: one who conquers; one who overcomes; one who triumphs. Interest Group We do not rush! Instead gentlemen interested in our organization form an interest group. The interest group gives you the opportunity to truly get to know the brothers and bond with other interests prior to the induction process. The interest group also allows you to see the organizational skills and time dedication it takes to be part of the fraternity. The interests are required to maintain a certain GPA as well as perform certain tasks such as community service and fundraising. We look for LEADERS!!!
