Our chapter
Forty-three years in Frederick.
Xi Xi Lambda was chartered on September 1, 1983, as the 602nd chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. — an alumni chapter of college-educated men committed to the communities where we live and work.
Who we are
An alumni chapter with college roots.
Xi Xi Lambda serves as the alumni advisor chapter to two college chapters of the fraternity: Mu Upsilon at Frostburg State University in Frostburg, Maryland, and Phi Iota at McDaniel College in Westminster, Maryland.
We are part of the Eastern Region of Alpha Phi Alpha and the Mid-Atlantic Association of Alpha Phi Alpha Chapters, and we partner with fellow organizations of the National Pan-Hellenic Council across Frederick County.
The fraternity
The first. Since 1906.
Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. was founded on December 4, 1906, at Cornell University — the first intercollegiate Greek-letter fraternity established for African American men.
Its seven founders, remembered as the Jewels, built an organization grounded in scholarship, fellowship, good character and the uplifting of humanity. The first alumni chapter followed in 1911, and the fraternity has been interracial since 1945. More than a century later, Alpha men continue that work in communities around the world through programs such as Go-to-High-School, Go-to-College; A Voteless People Is a Hopeless People; Project Alpha; and the Brother's Keeper initiative.
