Unity, Love, and Respect
The principles of unity, love, and respect guide our sisterhood. We believe that as sisters, we should spread these principles throughout the world, using them to make a difference.

Lambda Theta Alpha is not an exclusionary organization.
Lambda Ladies pride themselves on being a part of a sisterhood that is "Latin by tradition, not by definition." We welcome women of all ethnicities, backgrounds, and demographics.

Academic excellence as a pillar.
LTA was founded as an academic sorority, making education a primary goal and function within the organization. Our chapter, along with other chapters in the nation, host educational workshops for sisters and their university communities.
Unique Tradition
Sisters participate in a specific tradition unique to LTA called saluting. This is where sisters stand in a line and recite "poetry in motion" with synchronized movements. This tradition symbolizes unity and respect.
