The majority of programs, events and initiatives sponsored by Lambda Theta Phi are
carried out at the undergraduate and alumni or sector levels. These activities include
charity fundraising, community clean-ups, mentoring in schools, educational and
cultural programming, and hosting motivational speakers on campus. Social events
at the undergraduate level include picnics, mixers, and parties. Our alumni also
engage in social activities ranging from poker and domino nights and pool tournaments
to networking receptions.
Throughout the country, sectors convene to sponsor regional dinners and conferences
modeled after the national events. Although special National Board events are presented
sporadically, certain events are consistently sponsored by the National Board:
Annual Awards Banquet
The Fraternity has sponsored an annual awards banquet dating back to December of
1978. The banquet is a formal event, which features keynote speakers, dancing and
entertainment in an elegant ballroom setting. At the banquets, the National Board
recognizes individuals, chapters and sectors for their contributions and accomplishments.
National Convention
The National Conventions are hosted every two years convening the voting representatives
from all of the fraternity’s regions and the National Executive Board. Issues
concerning the Fraternity at a national level are addressed, constitutional amendments,
if any, are discussed and voted upon, and elections for the various national offices
are held at these gatherings.
National Brotherhood Conference
National Brotherhood Conferences are held on odd numbered years as a method to continuously
educate our brotherhood on a variety of topics. Workshops are facilitated by alumni
brothers and non-brothers, who specialize in specific fields. The conferences are
aimed to meet both undergraduate and alumni interests.
In addition to the above, at our conventions and conferences, the attendees also
enjoy recreational and social events. The locations have varied across the country
based on proposals submitted by various sectors, which are selected via a competitive
process conducted by the National Executive Board.
