"Being a Lambda Lady and part of this beautiful sisterhood has been one of the best things that has happened to me, because being an only child I did not have the opportunity to know how it feels to have a sister. Now having such lovely sisters make me feel so proud and lucky that I would not, for an instance, change what I am a part of or change any of my line sisters"

"There will never be enough words that can describe how good it feels to be part of such an amazing & welcoming sisterhood.  There's nothing out there that compares to it.  It is one of the best decisions I have made because it has provided me with a loving sisterhood and an amazing support system that will last for a life time. The bond that has been created among us is something that I would not trade in for anything in

the world.  I've been blessed with what I call my second family.  We have all gone through so much together this past 7+ years, and each and every single experience has made us stronger individually and has brought us closer together as sisters.  I carry the principles of Unity, Love and Respect in my heart and this is something that will stay in me for the rest of my life.  I am extremely proud to be a sister Lambda Theta Alpha Latin Sorority, Inc."

"There are no words to explain how it feels to be a part of sisterhood where you are welcomed by all. I was a part of our interest group for more than two years, and every day was worth it. The principles of Unity, Love, and Respect are unique and untouchable by any other organizations that I have seen. Unifying together to accomplish tasks that at times seemed impossible has given each and everyone of my Line Sisters the strength to continue and encouragement to strive for all of our goals. I am very proud to be a sister of Lambda Theta Alpha; it is a whole other world knowing that you have people all across the country that will open their hearts and homes to you. The history, traditions, and beliefs of Lambda Theta Alpha are strong and they are now a part of me; something that will live in me, and something that I will live by for the rest of my life"

"Being a Lambda Lady feels GREAT! Although the road to achieve such status was long and arduous, the wait was definitely worth it. The beliefs, values, and principles of Lambda Theta Alpha embodied everything that I looked for in an organization, thus the decision to bring a chapter of LTA to the UW campus was an easy one. Now, over two years later, I am a proud member of Lambda Theta Alpha. The organization itself works very hard to accomplish its goals, and my beloved Gamma Omicron Chapter works equally as hard! Never before would I have imagined being a part of such a culturally diverse organization where its members live by the principles of Unity, Love, and Respect day after day. Never before would I have imagined being able to feel a connection to hundreds of sisters across the United States. Lastly, never before would I have imagined being part of something so great! In life you must make choices, and I made the decision of joining Lambda Theta Alpha, this is one that I will NEVER regret!"

"Being part of a sisterhood, that has existed for more than 20 years is exciting. I have this bond with my line sisters that is different from others. You know that they will be with you through thick and thin, no matter what. There are many advantages to being a lambda lady and one of those is knowing that you have sisters around the country whom you have never met, but will be willing to help out whenever. So far, I have had the chance to meet some great sisters and there are so many more to meet"

"All I have to say is that when you hear the sisters tell you that once you cross that's when the "REAL" pledging starts- You BETTER Believe IT!! I really enjoy being in such wonderful organization where everything you ask for is there- community service, socials, sisterhood, academics, etc. You name it, we have it. I really enjoy being part of this organization where I can share with such lovely ladies here at the University of Washington and then knowing that there are lots more out there- just gives me more chills :D. ALL in ALL- Lambda Theta Alpha is a 'reality not a myth.'"

"For me, LTA was having a family away from home.  In becoming a sister of LTA, I was joining a group of strong, beautiful, independent, and hardworking ladies.  Values that I looked up to and hoped to represent some day.  LTA's principles of Unity, Love, & Respect were strong values that resonated within me and have also been the stepping stone for me in joining.  Along my journey I have built life long relationships and despite the distance and life milestones, I still feel a connection with my sisters.  I love each and everyone of my sisters as well as this organization and love seeing my chapter grow.
