Epsilon-Omicron Chapter
@utklambdachi
In January 1927 a group of UT engineering students interested in intramurals formed Zeta Tau Lambda. In 1930, the group petitioned Lambda Chi Alpha for a charter. The 14th General Assembly of Lambda Chi Alpha granted the charter, and the Epsilon Omicron Chapter of Lambda Chi Alpha was installed at UT on March 19, 1932. Since that date, the Epsilon Omicron chapter has initiated over 2,500 brothers.
Lambda Chi Alpha Epsilon-Omicron returned to UT in the Spring of 2021, and chartered Spring of 2022 as the fastest chartering in the history of Lambda Chi Alpha. The philanthropy of our local colony is Second Harvest Food Bank. Our legendary philanthropic event, Watermelon Bust, occurs annually in the Fall semester. In addition to philanthropy events, Lambda Chi Alpha completed over 700 hours of community service during the Fall 2022 semester.
Our seven core values: loyalty, duty, respect, service and stewardship, honor, integrity, and personal courage — provide a moral compass for our brotherhood and differentiate us from others. Through these pillars, we strive for the ideal of perfect brotherhood.
