What are the benefits of my son joining? What are the benefits of my son joining?Our fraternity offers a unique brotherhood of lifelong friends and also provides an opportunity for our members to develop successful characteristics and values. Alpha Kappa Lambda encourages its members to mature not only educationally but also socially. The goal of this process is achieving a wholeness of character that is prepared to assume the leadership responsibilities brought forth in the course of life. Back to TopWhere is Alpha Kappa Lambda's house located?Alpha Kappa Lambda is set to move into their new $2.5 million 10,500 + sq/ft fraternity house on August 1, 2008. Click Here to see the plans for our new house. It is located on Fraternity Row, between Lambda Chi and Kappa Sig. Our address is 561 Jefferson Ave., Tuscaloosa, Alabama, 35487 Back to TopWhat is your scholarship program, and do you have a required GPA?We require pledges to complete at least 12 hours of study hall per week. This is sufficient time to complete all homework and study for any tests. In addition, we require 3 study hall hours per week the semester following pledges’ initiation. In the event any brothers’ GPA falls below a 2.5, they will also be required to complete 3 hours of study hall per week. Back to TopDoes Alpha Kappa Lambda do anything beside social events?Alpha Kappa Lambda takes great pride in our successful philanthropy events. We believe a well-rounded fraternity must make a commitment to give back to the community. This past spring our Annual Charity Golf Tournament and Benefit Concert raised more than $3,000 for the Cystic Fibrosis Alabama Chapter. Our annual philanthropy events include These Hands Don’t Hurt benefiting the Women’s Resource Center, Relay for Life, Hurricane Creek Cleanup, and The Heart Walk. We also organized a donation drive, volunteered man-hours, and held a benefit concert to help Hurricane Katrina victims. Receiving the University of Alabama Greek Excellence Award for Philanthropy, Alpha Kappa Lambda totaled 1,610 community service hours last year alone. Back to TopDoes Alpha Kappa Lambda haze pledges?Our fraternity strictly forbids any kind of physical abuse during pledgeship. We strongly believe hitting or beating pledges will be counterproductive to the brotherhood of the fraternity. Alpha Kappa Lambda’s pledgeship seeks to unite the pledge class and teach leadership skills. Back to Top |  | |||||||||||||||||||||||
