The 28 Most Notable Lambda Chis For The Frat’s 102nd Anniversary

On November 2nd, 1909 Lambda Chi Alpha was founded at Boston University. Yesterday, we showed you the most notable SigEps, so we thought it’d be only fair to showcase some of the more noteworthy Lambdas. They’re one of the largest fraternities in North America, having initiated more than 280,000 members and held chapters at more than 300 universities. We didn’t have Lambdas at Hopkins but we did have the pledge class Lambda, whom we dubbed “Lame-da” because they refused to do ANYTHING we told them. They just chanted, “Or What?!” over and over.

The 25 Most Notable Sig Eps For The Frat’s 110th Anniversary

On November 1st, 1901, Sigma Phi Epsilon was founded at Richmond College (now the University of Richmond) on three principles: Virtue, Diligence, and Brotherly Love. It’s the second largest social fraternity in the U.S. in terms of current undergraduate membership, reportedly the largest in terms of total members initiated, and was the first to charter a chapter in all 50 states. At Hopkins, Sig Ep is the swimmer’s fraternity and they (used to) throw a killer black light party – unless you have stained teeth or a severe dandruff problem. Without Sig Ep, who knows what would’ve happened to these most notable brothers. Click the link to see who they are.

In the pros, all those Heismans and school records don’t mean anything anymore. It’s put up or shut up time and it’s a proving ground for anyone who thought that they were going to be playing in the big leagues.
