Lambda Theta Phi claims to be the first LGLO, but doesnt another organization make the same claim?
We maintain that although another organization may have had individuals of Latino descent among their founders, Lambda Theta Phi was founded as a Latin Fraternity. Latin Fraternity is part of our legal name and in our papers of incorporation. Our status as a Latin fraternity is and always has been stated in our constitution. Our organization has existed continually since its founding with governing authority passed down from founders to subsequent members without interruption. In addition, we can document our founding as a Latin fraternity. In fact, the first mention of a LGLO in the American newspaper was in 1978 where Lambda Theta Phi was referred to as part of a coalition of Latin student organizations protesting for better services at Kean University.
