True Brother Initiative
As a co-curricular partner in higher education and leader in the Greek
movement, Lambda Chi Alpha Fraternity is redefining the undergraduate
Greek experience by focusing on the importance of the maturational
development of today’s fraternity men. Unlike many peer fraternal organizations, Lambda Chi Alpha is
measuring the interpersonal development progress of its members and
comparing the outcomes across campuses.
Under the umbrella name of the TRUETM Brother
Initiative, Lambda Chi Alpha has structured a comprehensive development
program for undergraduate brothers to actively live our Seven Core
Values in every aspect of their lives. Developed and piloted in 2006,
the TRUE Brother Initiative was made available to our nearly
200 chapters and colonies in 2007. To measure the effectiveness of the
program, surveys are administered at association and initiation, and the
final academic term before graduation.
From the beginning of a
man’s Lambda Chi Alpha experience, these values are instilled and
cultivated through a tactical approach to values-based
recruiting. Additionally, our associate member program has grown through
a demanding, but never demeaning, new member education framework
focusing on a young man’s growth, maturation, and development rooted in
these philosophical values.

TRUE Brother Initiative, please contact the local chapter
Education Chairman.
