Since its inception in 1986, Sigma Lambda Beta has established the ideals of fairness, opportunity, and equality of all men without regard to their race, culture, or ethnic background. Their biggest goal is to see that all of society can realize the importance of these three ideals through the following principles:

  • Brotherhood – As Brothers of Sigma Lambda Beta we pride ourselves in creating a family-oriented atmosphere at our respective campuses. It is this support network that we have been able to create what makes our organization so powerful.
  • Scholarship – Academic success and higher education is our main goal as collegiate men. It is through our brotherhood that we can enhance academic retention and ensure a high percentage of graduating members as well as members perusing post-baccalaureate degrees.
  • Cultural Awareness – A great deal of emphasis is placed on spreading cultural awareness in each of our campuses. We believe that only through heightened awareness of the rich cultures we all share we will increase our understanding, tolerance, and acceptance of one another.
  • Community Service – As able men, we believe it is our responsibility to give back to our communities through service and philanthropic endeavors. Some of our most popular service events include: Bro. Victor Correa CPR Awareness, Vote Latino, Habitat for Humanity, Relay for Life, etc.

Famous quotes containing the words mission and/or principles:

    It is the mission of the twentieth century to elucidate the irrational.
    Maurice Merleau-Ponty (1907–1961)

    I am not one of those who have the least anxiety about the triumph of the principles I have stood for. I have seen fools resist Providence before, and I have seen their destruction, as will come upon these again, utter destruction and contempt. That we shall prevail is as sure as that God reigns.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
