The Second Century and Beyond

In March 1995, the fraternity celebrated its milestone 100th anniversary with a tribute to our Founders, at the site of our founding, Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut.

Now, as the second century of our history unfolds, we are still facing countless challenges. Faculties and administrations are questioning the relevancy of fraternities on today's college campuses. Alcohol and drug abuse, excesses of hazing during what had been the traditional orientation period for new members have spotlighted some fraternities as reluctant dinosaurs.

As Pi Lambda Phi begins the new millennium, we must strive to be the innovative fraternity that Henry Mark Fisher, Frederick Manfred Werner, and Louis Samter Levy laid the cornerstone for in 1895. The legacy for our future is in our hands.
