Lambda Chi Alpha is a social fraternity that was founded in 1909 at Boston University. North Carolina State's chapter (the Gamma Upsilon Zeta Chapter) was installed in 1924, having been initially formed in 1920 as the Pi Alpha fraternity and then later petitioning to join Lambda Chi Alpha. The Gamma Upsilon Zeta Chapter became the 65th chapter of the fraternity at its installation, and remained active until 1998, when financial problems led to the closure of the chapter.
The records of the Gamma Upsilon Zeta Chapter (North Carolina State University's chapter) of the Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity include their chartes and bylaws, financial records, reports to the national office of Lambda Chi Alpha, the chapter's history, and information on the Gamma Upsilon Zeta housemother and her book on the history of the chapter. Materials range in date from 1922 to 1997.
Materials are arranged alphabetically by topic.
