Chapter History
In the Spring of 1993 Lambda Theta Alpha's first Graduate Chapters was
established in New Jersey by:
Linda Diaz
Johanna Velez-Yelin.
The chapters' purpose was to provide an avenue where ladies who were pursuing
their Masters Degree could be given the opportunity to join a sorority. Its goal
was to provide services to the undergraduate chapters, such as educational
workshops and mentoring.
Linda and Johanna were advisors to undergraduate chapters of Lambda Theta Alpha.
Having devoted much time and commitment to the sorority, Linda and Johanna grew
to love it as their own. In the Spring of 1993, Alpha Alpha Graduate Chapter was
established by these two highly motivated individuals. Since its inception three
more graduate chapters have been established - Alpha Beta Graduate Chapter in
Connecticut, Alpha Gamma Graduate Chapter in Texas. amd A;[ja Delta Graduate
Chapter in Maryland.
