Chapter History
During the summer of 2001 a group of ladies in the Maryland Area came together
to form an Interest Group for Lambda Theta Alpha Latin Sorority Incorporated.
These educated ladies earned degrees from various schools including: The George
Washington University, Hood College, University of Maryland College Park and
Rutgers University Camden. In addition, these ladies were all of diverse ethnic
backgrounds including Filipino, Peruvian, Puerto Rican and African-American.
Four ladies eventually went on to form the Alpha Delta Chapter the graduate
chapter for the Maryland Area. The following ladies were all working women, and
one was also a 40 year-old wife and mother.
Katherine Faye V. Genegaban
Erika Soria
Kia Rene้ Alford
Migdalia Ibarrondo Harris
These founding sisters of Alpha Delta Graduate Chapter received tremendous
support from Upsilon and Beta Kappa chapters as well as the Maryland Area
Alumni. It is because of these ladies and their hard work and dedication that
Alpha Delta Graduate Chapter was formed in January of 2002.
On October 5, 2002 Alpha Delta Graduate Chapter became the first Lambda Theta
Alpha Latin Sorority Incorporated chapter to be awarded the National Association
of Latino Fraternal Organizations (NALFO) Alumni/Graduate Chapter of the Year
award.
