Brothers,

It is with deep sadness that we send this notice. Early this morning we lost another member of our Fraternal Family, Brother Shaun Chapa of Alpha Tau Chapter. Words cannot express the sadness we are all feeling at this moment. For those who had to honor of meeting Brother Chapa, we will be left with the memory of his inviting personality and positive attitude. Brother Chapa served in the US Marine Corps honorably for four years, and in his return to college joined Lambda Theta Phi in the Spring of 2008. He was currently serving our Brotherhood as Texas Sector 2 Vice President. Brother Chapa has touched the hearts of so many around him, may his legacy live on forever and may we never forget the causes that Brother Chapa was always fighting for.

Brothers at this time we must all come together for the family of Brother Chapa in their time of need. He leaves behind a girlfriend and daughter. Let us keep them in our thoughts and prayers.

The National Executive Board has set up a PayPal link to allow for donations for Brother's Chapa's family, this will be sent out shortly.

Dr. Jesus Barrios: Reflections of a Lambda  


ETA CHAPTER ALUMNI 


SPRING 97     

.....................I will not claim that I am an eye doctor because of Lambda Theta Phi.  No fraternity can guarantee success for all of its members.  Also, becoming a doctor is not the sole path to success.  Without deviating into philosophy too much, every person has a role to play in this World and none is more important than any other.

What I can say is that Lambda Theta Phi does instill in its members great values to live by.  Humility and respect are emphasized during the induction process, for example.  If everyone could incorporate these two values into their way of life, society would be much more harmonious.  However, it is each individual’s personal responsibility to assimilate and utilize these positive teachings.  I, for one, followed through on this influence and I began to model my own rules for my life and interpersonal conduct.  I believe this has led to what I consider my own personal success.
