CHICO, CA – The National Executive Board of Lambda Theta Phi Latin Fraternity, Inc. welcomes our newest colony to the Brotherhood, California State University at Chico. Congratulations to the new founding brothers of the CSU Chico Colony!

These gentlemen have worked tirelessly over the past three years to bring Lambda Theta Phi to CSU Chico. Through perseverance and fortitude they achieved their goal of becoming brothers of Lambda Theta Phi while also creating history at their campus.

The CSU Chico Colony is the 126th undergraduate entity of Lambda Theta Phi, the 22nd colony in California and the first colony added to the new California Sector 4.

The National Board of Lambda Theta Phi thanks our Northwest Regional Expansion Officer, Ramsey Hanna (FB Gamma Zeta, Spring 2007), the line’s induction officer, Brother Joseph Sciancalepore (Beta Upsilon, Spring 2010) and the Assistant Pledgemasters Gerardo Bolaños (Beta Upsilon, Spring 2011) and José Alfonso Perez (Beta Upsilon, Spring 2012) for their extensive work with the new brothers and CSU Chico. We also want to thank the Northern California chapters for helping make this possible.

Let us continue building the future of Lambda Theta Phi. ¡En la unión está la fuerza!
