A Brotherhood is a path that a group takes, and through this path they go through obstacles together, but as a team they take care of each other and go through this experience together to accomplish their goal. Once the journey ends, and the fellowship is created, the Brotherhood does not cease. It continues to grow with more experiences and the Brotherhood can become even stronger. During the intake process, our brotherhood has been tested by the hardships we endured, and by going through it and helping each other out, I was able to open my eyes and see that I want to continue to help my brothers. We operate as a unit, and when one fails, we all fail. With this concept we learned to work together, and we learned a lot about each other along the way. A Brotherhood is a lifetime commitment and shouldn’t be taken very lightly. Being a Lambda is not only a privilege, it’s a lifetime commitment to living the ideals of the fraternity.

Everyone may have a different explanation for what the brotherhood may be. Each variation is no more significant than another one. I believe what makes a true brotherhood meaningful is the foundation on which its members base their values upon. It is the collective experiences shared among that group that help determine whether or not they are actually growing as a band of brothers and not just any other group of guys. There are times during the day when I randomly start feeling angst and all I am able to think about is the next time I get to be in the presence of my brothers. I believe that this feeling is a big indicator that I am literally a part of a true brotherhood. There are, of course, many other ways that I believe exemplify a true brotherhood. Ultimately, to me, brotherhood means that I will stand and fight wholeheartedly alongside my brothers against any force that opposes any of us and I will never back down and quit on them as long as I am able to breathe.

As brothers, we function as a unit and go through all the tough and enjoyable times together. We know each other’s strengths and weaknesses and do whatever we can to take care of one another. A brotherhood is a bond that few people get to share and experience. True brotherhood is internal and can overcome any deep emotional hardship. No matter the race or ethnicity, we all come together as a unit and achieve what we all strive for the most. Brothers should be able to understand one another’s way of life. Everyone is treated equal and not blinded by pride or our own beliefs and understandings. We develop each person to their fullest potential and to encourage personal growth. As each day passes, the love for each other grows stronger every day. Brotherhood is like a second family that you learn to cherish every moment you have together and you will always have that bond until the day you die and beyond.

Brotherhood is a special bond. This is a bond that you share with a select few people. Everyone in this brotherhood has these bonds with each other that outsiders may not understand. These bonds allow you to instill faith in and depend on your brothers in your time of need. Brotherhood comes with helping a brother out if they need you, no matter the circumstances. If they’re not there for you physically, they’ll surely be there for you in spirit. Brotherhood isn’t all about the good times in my opinion. It is also about the struggle. The struggle is real. During my pledge process, my brotherhood consisted of Jeremy, G, David, Adrian, Zhi, Ronald, Sebastian, Randy, and MJ. These are my brothers outside of my biological blood. We’ll cry, sweat, and bleed with each other throughout the years together, as we begin a new journey at Washington State University. We’ll have each other’s backs through thick and thin because we’re brothers, while making memories that’ll last a lifetime.

Loyalty is a value that our Interest Group has developed first in terms of brotherhood. We have developed a sense of loyalty where it did not matter what any one of us was going through—we knew that there would always be a brother that would be there for us and have our back no matter what the circumstances. Though we were forced to put that blind faith into each other, it really taught us a small but important sample of what it meant to be able to support and trust each other. Now that faith has increased exponentially. Going through all these experiences with everyone in the group has given me a very different perspective on what brotherhood means to me. Every person has their own definition of brotherhood, but my definition has been shaped by this process and all the things I have done during it. With that said, brotherhood to me means everything: all the collective experiences shared during this process and the personal hurdles I have overcome alongside my brothers.

As brothers, we are never stronger more than when we are tested. Of course, there are always the good times and the bad with any family, but during our chartering process, we have learned how to function as a unit as we experienced overcoming some of the most challenging of obstacles. True brotherhood is not from the outside of physical appearances. It is internal and very deep and emotional. I believe that brotherhood transcends friendship. Lambda Phi Epsilon has taught me that this brotherhood can be leveraged as a platform to work towards a common goal. Brothers are there as someone to rely on and depend and vice versa. I have learned to put the interests of my brothers ahead of myself. Our brotherhood is like a glass that is half full and half empty: we take the initiative to ask each other how we can fill their glass full up to the rim. As each day passes, the camaraderie I have for all of my brothers deepen with love and respect.

Brotherhood to me is an enduring relationship because it demands the most dedication out of a person. Brotherhood is that instant connection gained amongst each other showing that everyone loves and cares about each other like how brothers should be. For my class, even though starting out as strangers, I know now that we are forever linked as brothers. The die hard loyalty we established as charters throughout the new member education journey was the reward I discovered. I know that with brothers, I will have the connections and the support for life. With my brothers at my side, I will be able to depend on them when I need them the most and those will be the men that I will share the important milestones of my life. I have come to learn that pain is temporary; brotherhood is eternal. The meaning of brotherhood is much more than just someone to bond with, it is someone who you know will be there for you for the rest of your life.

I have journeyed brotherhood through three steps: The Search, The Abyss, and The Light. Beginning with The Search, each individual enters the group as strangers. Shortly after the formation of our Interest Group, we began exploring why we were doing what we were doing. Continuing with The Abyss, this is where all of the men in our group had become comfortable of each other’s presence, and soon we had stepped through the threshold, from being just strangers, to acquaintances working toward a common goal. It was here where I had the opportunity to find out exactly what each person was like, how they acted, and where they came from. Lastly, The Light. It was here where the beginnings of true brotherhood had been conceived. It was here where all of our views and morals were tested, and only together would we be able to achieve anything greater than if we were on our own. I can’t wait to see what the future has in store for us. One thing is for sure, the best is yet to come.

The concept of brotherhood is constantly thrown around in the common experience of close friends, but there is much more to it, and in reality, it is likely to find that only a small percentage of people get to experience the incredible values and bonds of true brotherhood. To me, this term should not be spoken only, but rather must be lived. I used to be one of these people that abused the term, but not because I intentionally wanted to throw around the term to my friends like it was nothing, but because I actually did not know any better; I never really had the chance to learn what brotherhood was all about because I had yet to go through any experiences that would develop such a relationship and create this once in a lifetime bond. Even if at first we fail, triumph is inevitable when we can count on our brothers and have entire faith in placing our well-being in their hands without a doubt. I am grateful to have found eternal brotherhood in Lambda Phi Epsilon.

I look at my brothers as competition: teachers and students who I can learn something from, teach something to, or just strive to be better than in life. A brotherhood means having a group to fall back on when you’re at your lowest point, too. It’s a cold world out there and everyone needs someone to lean on at some point. Balancing the chartering process, college coursework, and part-time work, my brothers kept me sane since they were going through the same experience. They gave me an outlet to vent about my problems or just kick it so I felt like I had a social life. Brotherhood is a feeling of belonging that you feel when you have the worst day of your life but you’re laughing 10 minutes later because your brothers are there for you. Or at your wedding day when one of your brothers decides to give a toast and brings up the time you got so drunk you wet the bed that night. Companions for life, I know my brothers are still here to help me out for anything.

You know the feeling when you arrive on campus and say, “This place is my home?” Brotherhood is the exact same thing. Arriving into an environment where you immediately click is one of the best feelings a human can experience. Experiencing this feeling shows that you belong there with the environment and the people. The individuals of the group hold different characteristics, but unite as one to form an overwhelming amount of personality, experience and intelligence. My purpose of joining this eternal brotherhood is to expand my network and to have a closer relationship with the Wazzu family. I have experienced a number of life changing actions and thoughts and for that, I am very grateful. Everything has a beginning, middle and an end; except for brotherhoods. Brotherhoods do not hold an ending. Our brotherhood evinces an eternal connection once the bond is made. I am proud to be in the unbreakable brotherhood of Lambda Phi Epsilon.

Throughout this process I have been faced with defining what brotherhood means to me. In order to become a dependable brother, you need to have a strong sense of yourself. You need to believe in yourself before others will. Building upon your beliefs and creating a strong sense of identity is crucial. Personal conviction cannot be faked. You cannot put up a façade and expect people to believe in you if you do not believe in yourself first. In brotherhood, everyone represents a cog in the machine. If one link is broken or weak, then the rest of the group cannot properly function. Being able to trust each other fully is the core element of a successful society. Only when a puzzle is put together can you see the entire picture as a whole. If one piece is missing then the picture is lost. We are not alone anymore and we will always have each other to fall back on when life presents us with unthinkable trials that we don’t expect.

I spent a good year thinking about whether to join Lambda Phi Epsilon. I ignored all of the cons that are stereotypically said about fraternities because I was tired of hearing the hasty generalizations. I had to experience Greek life for myself, so I took the dive into the unknown and have not since regretted it. Through my intake process, I’ve come to learn that brotherhood can build a solid foundation of courtesy, integrity, perseverance, self-control and indomitable spirit. I learned how to obtain enduring respect for myself and others out of politeness and humility; maintain a strict ethical code of honesty and loyalty; acquire the skills of dedication to persist in challenging times in spite of opposition or discouragement; demonstrate patience and discipline to exert my will power over my emotions and impulses; and show courage by having the right attitude in maintaining inner strength regardless of winning or losing. Lambda Phi Epsilon is now a brotherhood I can call my own.

Before the start of my intake process with Lambda Phi Epsilon Fraternity, I didn’t think much about the concept of brotherhood. I am an only child with no brothers, nor any siblings. During new member education, my definition of brotherhood has been enhanced. I now have 6 pledge brothers who I have spent a lot of time with. We’ve come to rely on each other for support throughout process and trust each other with our most intimate thoughts. Starting out as complete strangers, I’ve learned about my brothers’ history, their perspectives, and even their quirky mannerisms. We have quickly made strides towards working as a functional unit, utilizing the advantages that one brother has and filling in for the shortfalls of another. This is what a brotherhood should be like—not just one individual I can trust implicitly, but several individuals that I can trust and who can function as one to help achieve our goals.

Why did I decide to get into this brotherhood? This is because I saw Lambda Phi Epsilon Fraternity as a unique opportunity to begin a new chapter of my life. I knew I could look back on the experience and say it had made a positive impact. The connections I have already made throughout Lambdas, such as the invaluable networking among numerous actives and alumni throughout the region and the world, as well as the leadership skills and professional development are undoubtedly beneficial for my future. Throughout the long and enduring new member education process, even though there had been bumps into the wall and struggles along the way, the brotherhood within my class was never shattered. Instead, it grew stronger. The process was long and not meant to be easy. Memories have been created with each pledge brother and bonds have been cemented among our class. I am grateful for being able to start and finish this process with them and no one else.

Before I joined Lambda Phi Epsilon, brotherhood was just another word in the dictionary. My pledge brothers and I started out as complete strangers, but through our brotherhood events and shared experiences from our intake process, we grew as one class—united. We do not throw each other under the bus because as brothers, we look out for each other. Perhaps one of the greatest things about brotherhood is that it comes naturally. We begin to offer to help pay for each other’s mistakes; we begin to lean on each other without every having to question our loyalties. While experiences help shape and build stronger bonds between brothers, the significance each one of my pledge brother’s hold in my life cannot change. That is why I believe most people may never have a chance to experience a bond as stronger as one in a brotherhood. Who knows where we will all be in ten years? Yet, one thing is for certain: I know I will still be in contact with my pledge brothers.

I went through many obstacles in my life, but there are some people who were given the opportunity struggles with and experience situations with them that you never even expected. I was luckily one of them. People within your brotherhood understand your ins and outs. I never understood brotherhood fully and did not care for brotherhood until I joined Lambdas. Brotherhood is more than just simply friendship. They are ones who you can see at your wedding and graduation. You can clearly tell the difference between when I am with my brothers and when I am with my friends that I made throughout the school year. I have created memories with my brothers and it continues to become more memories. I have told them stories that I have never told anyone before. It is simply amazing how much this brotherhood has been changing me.

Life can be unpredictable and unfair, often throwing challenges at us which we have no clue how to solve. Whether it is school, people, or sports people never know what to expect. When you’re born into a family you don’t get to choose who you end up with, and in a brotherhood you may not all get along. Even though there may be times of quarrel and disagreement, the trials and tribulations that brothers go through is what keeps them together in a brotherhood. Brothers know that the word brotherhood does not simply mean people sharing common interest, or being similar to one another. They know the word to mean something deeper, not just a simple definition, but a collection of memories, the blood sweat and tears shed together. Words can be simply defined by words, but some require the time invested to truly understand the meaning of the word to its fullest. I personally may not have understood the word brotherhood to its true definition, but I am always learning and gaining new understandings to what it means to be in a brotherhood.

The definition of the word brotherhood is totally different with the word friendship. I can consider everyone as my friend, but I will not calling them as my brother. For me personally, the concept of brother is whether you are in adverse situation or you are successfully they always there for you and got your back. The premise of a brother is that people must go through difficulties with you and during the process we built up a trust with each other. As a brother for each other, I will always try my best to help them. Every time you find something fun or something happy, you want to share with them; or sometimes I face difficult challenges, I will be looking forward to their advice and suggestions. If we take situations as a war, I will never win it by myself. It is all about how much you care about your brothers and how much you trust your brothers. I feel like I can do anything with my brothers. Beta class is strong like no other.

A lot of people will say brotherhood is just a word or that it’s just an ordinary bond. But to me, brotherhood is much more than a word, its more than just a bond. It’s something that is not given but is earned. It forms when you can completely accept the good things and the bad things about each other and still stand with them no matter what. Brotherhood is filled with love, care, and acceptance, and I am grateful I can call the men I stand with, my brothers. Without this brotherhood I am not sure where I would be or who I would be. They have helped me become the person I am today and I can gladly say that I will have all their backs until the end of time.

I never grew up with any brothers — I’ve always felt like that something was missing. I have that with Lambda Phi Epsilon. The connections I’ve built with my brothers are transcendent. In any situation, we can call on each other to carry the weight of all our weaknesses. Obstacles are never meant to be met alone, and that’s why I have my brothers. I was on the verge of completely losing my way. But they became my support system and provided me with invaluable guidance in finding the direction in my life and for that I have the utmost respect for them. I have had to persevere through many adversities alone, but now I know I always have a brother. The countless amounts of inside jokes, convoluted conversations, stories, and hard work we all shared because of this brotherhood a things I will remember for the rest of my life. I am the brotherhood and the brotherhood is me. Lambdas Forever.

Brotherhood is a unique, private bond based on intangible, invisible principles. And because of this bond, you’ll be making friends which last not a semester, or four years, but for a lifetime. Being part of a fraternity is incomparable to anything else; it’s brotherhood, pure and simple. However, to know of its existence is one thing, to experience the brotherhood of fraternity membership is another.

Brotherhood is it’s own unique relationship between myself and those who I can call “brothers”. This relationship may be formed in relation to mutually shared personal hardship, of which is resolvable with those I can deem as brothers to aid you and be right by your side. It is an intangible, yet significant relationship, deeply rooted in interconnected emotional experiences. It means putting yourself in a state of vulnerability, an unstructured susceptible state of which is subject to the judgement of and vulgar criticism of others, but the love and acceptance of your brothers. It cannot be just be declared verbally, but declared through actions, experiences, and endeavors as people far beyond mere friends. When the term “brotherhood” is stated, it is a bond that cannot be described through words alone, but by the firsthand interpersonal strides experienced with people who I can genuinely call “brothers”.

Being the eldest of 4 sisters, I have always wanted a younger brother to pick on and share similar interests. Or an older brother to look up to as a role model. When I joined Lambda Phi Epsilon, I’ve learned that brotherhood is more than just a relation. It is a deep bond that is built upon trust, vulnerability and love. The adversity, the similar obstacles that my brothers have faced as an Asian American is what attracted me to the fraternity the most. It is easy to pick on the negatives of the Greek system, but what people cannot measure is the lives this particular fraternity has saved and supported. Learning the coming of age stories of my pledge brothers has significantly humbled me, trusting each other with our deepest insecurities that we have experienced in our lives. Learning that each brother’s purpose for joining this fraternity is genuine and not for the sake of just partying, but for goals greater than themselves. They are real leaders, and this what Brotherhood truly means to me.

At home I value the idea of being able to be vulnerable. I’m able to be the person that I want to be without judgement. Being apart of this brotherhood has taught me to be the my most authentic self that I can be.

A brotherhood consists of reassurance that no one has to feel alone, and that everyone is able to truly be themselves at ease. This brotherhood is stronger than steel and heavier than lead. My brothers have helped me learn and grow every single day. With the help of my brothers, have learned to not only give back to them and the community, but that I need to do what makes me feel happy and fulfilled. I can easily rely on all of my brothers to help each other through anything. I love all of my brothers forever.

Brothers in a brotherhood care, respect and love each other through celebration and hardship alike. I look up to every single one of my brothers in some way, each brother is unique and hold a special place in my heart. I learn from my brothers to make myself to my fullest potential and try to be the best I can to reciprocate. The most fundamental part about brotherhood, above all else, is love.

When I think about Brotherhood, the first thing that comes to mind is the bond that I created for myself with every brother whether they be alumni or new active brother. These bonds are strengthened every day with every laugh and hardship that we experience together. Brotherhood can only be described to a certain extent for outsiders, it is a feeling that can only be fully understood by those who have bridged the gap and formed the bonds of brotherhood with each other. It is not something that is given, it is earned through trust, humility, and authenticity. Our Brotherhood here at Washington State University is unique by how much we show out when it comes to our love for one another. I know at the end of the day I will always have a brother who will have my back when I am faced with adversity and struggling. I love my brotherhood and I am proud to be a brother here at Washington State University.

Brotherhood to me is not defined by shared blood, but rather the unconditional love and support shared among men. As well as the everlasting bonds formed through thick and thin, but like any unit as long as we are together any hardship can be overcome. As brothers, like any family there are differences, but that just makes everyone unique and add to the diversity of the brotherhood. They say “A picture is worth a thousand words” but the definition of brotherhood transcends language and can only be demonstrated through our enteral bonds. Brotherhood is filled with memories and moments that will last a lifetime, each adding to the ever rich and unforgettable history of that brotherhood. I have the honor to call these individuals who go above and beyond all the aspects of their life my brothers.

Before joining Lambda Phi Epsilon, growing up with a brother, I thought I knew what brotherhood was, but it was just the foundation. After going through the new member education process, I learned what brotherhood really means. Brotherhood is a word to describe not just the unconditional love and loyalty between my brothers and I, but the feeling of brotherhood is something that cannot be put into words. I’ve learned that brotherhood is not given, but created by the experiences with my brothers of life’s lows and highs. My brothers are and will always be there to lean on during our darkest moments, as well as celebrate our highest achievements. The bonds with my brothers is something that will continue to grow and flourish eternally.

Brotherhood is being confident in the support that each brother will provide to one another, love being another factor of it. It is something earned through constantly being there for each other. Each experience in this brotherhood is unique, which is what makes it what it is. These connections made with each other is something much deeper than your usual friendship and putting it into words does not do it justice. It becomes evident what brotherhood is when it is seen through the behavior we have towards each other. With this, I can confidently say, “The love that my brothers have is something only we can understand.”

Brotherhood means being able to rely on people who, despite just meeting–will inevitably become someone you can entrust your entire life to. Brotherhood isn’t defined by the happy moments that we share altogether, but rather the struggles and hardships that we face together along the way. Brotherhood isn’t defined by the color of your skin or race, but rather the adversities, aspirations, and dreams that each and every brother share. Each brother is significant in their own way, but to come together and utilize these different perspectives and dynamics all towards one goal, this is what brotherhood is all about. The definition of brotherhood is rather subjective; my definition is based on experiences. The experiences I’ve shared with these brothers have enriched my blind faith into absolute trust and loyalty. I will stand by these brothers through thick and thin till the end of the time. Brotherhood is facing the impossible headstrong with brothers alongside whom you’d risk your life for. I have sat in the same room from day 1 with blind faith into this organization–let alone my own brothers in the process, wherein that leap of faith into the great unknown has now provided me with lifetime connections, bonds that cannot be severed, and a sense of belonging. Brotherhood is never boasting, never different, and never divided. Brotherhood to me is always love, always sympathetic, and always understanding.

A brotherhood is a place where you can call home away from home, where everyone can be there authentic selves and pass no judgment. Brotherhood consists of people who genuinely care for one another. A brotherhood is there to help uplift you from your darkest times and celebrate with your achievements, no matter how big or small it may be. You have to put in the work and dedication to gain the trust of those you truly care about. It means that you’re willing to give up everything for one another without any further hesitation. Words cannot describe what “brotherhood” means, it’s the actions and work you put behind the scenes that only your brothers recognize that creates the meaning.

It’s an unbelievable confidence that your brothers love you for who you are without any hesitation. They hold you to the highest standard and you do the same to them because you all believe in each other. It’s not something that comes easily and you have to work hard for it every day because it’s something special.

Brotherhood is not just a bond that shares many common interests, but it is a bond born for adversity. A friend will give you all the answers and will make life easy for you, maintaining a surface-level relationship, but brotherhood will push past your limits to refine you to be the best version of yourself in achieving all your dreams and aspirations. It’s a bond that doesn’t happen overnight; it is forged from a journey of vulnerability and learning about one another. Brotherhood means a lot to me because of that lifetime of earned unconditional love, trust, and loyalty between my brothers and me. Just like my immediate family, it means just as much or more, that I’d go against all odds for my brothers, and I have faith they’d do the same for me.

Throughout the entirety of my life, I grew up alongside brothers. Having moved away from my family for the first time in my life, I realized that brotherhood was something I couldn’t live without, so it was important for me to find it. Joining Lambda Phi Epsilon, I had learned that brotherhood does not need to be familial. Regardless of whether a brother is a blood relative or not and although we may be quite different, both can show the common identities of what makes brotherhood: love, support, and trust. By building a bond between my brothers through many of our shared experiences, through moments of hardship and joy, those three aforementioned identities always show up at the forefront and therefore I know that I can always count on each other and any brother of Lambda Phi Epsilon just as much as I can count on my blood related family to achieve the greatest versions of ourselves. I am grateful for having brothers that fully embrace these ideals of brotherhood as another family and I am glad that we’ll always have each other’s backs for the rest of time.

Brotherhood can mean so many things. To me it means no matter the situation, no matter the condition, there will always be a sense of trust, loyalty, love, and support. Brotherhood is a sense togetherness that brings everyone together and puts them all on a mutual level. Brotherhood means a family away from family. Brotherhood is learning and teaching all in one, allowing yourself to take in and put out whatever is needed when needed. Building these new experiences with all my brothers, whether it be having fun, to helping a brother out that is in need. These experiences are what strengthen these bonds between bros creating that sense of eternal brotherhood. Brotherhood is being there, showing out and providing unconditional support through your words and actions.

To me, brotherhood represents the unwavering support and solidarity that is offered to one another during both the best and worst of times. Upon joining Lambda Phi Epsilon, I discovered that no matter where I found myself, my fellow Lambda brothers would always be there for me, through thick and thin. As the oldest member of my family, I was responsible for shouldering many of life’s burdens and quickly learned how to be independent and self-reliant in order to accomplish any task that came my way.
However, through the countless days and nights spent with my pledge brothers, I realized that anything is possible when you have a group of brothers who are always there for you, both physically and emotionally. Witnessing the willingness of my brothers to cry with me or go out of their way to assist me was a clear indication of their love and concern for me. These actions inspired me to reciprocate the same level of energy and love towards my brothers, and ultimately opened my eyes to the true meaning of brotherhood, which was something that I had been seeking for here at WSU.

Everyone has a different meaning of brotherhood, but for me it means family, a support system, an indispensable and unbreakable bond that formed outside of our blood-related family. Brothers will pick you up when you are at your lowest point, they will comfort you when you’re upset, they are the person who can share our happiness with, and we can call each other out when things go wrong. Before I joined Lambda Phi Epsilon, I didn’t even have a concept of what brotherhood looks like, I often see it as just a friendship, but after I joined this fraternity I realized brotherhood means so much more than friendship. In my opinion, you can easily call someone a friend, they can be your classmate, or school friends who you spent most of the time with, but quantity time doesn’t equal to quality time. Brothers will make time and sacrifice for each other no matter what circumstances, we can communicate with each other with just eye contact, and the love between brothers are unconditional and selfless.

Brotherhood means having a deep sense of loyalty and commitment to the organization, its members, and the principles that it represents. It involves supporting and uplifting one another, fostering a sense of community, and promoting personal and professional growth. Putting individual interests underneath the rug for the greater good is an essential attribute each brother must have to show loyalty. Brotherhood goes far beyond superficial connections and involves a deep understanding of others’ strengths, weaknesses, and aspirations. It also means telling the truth rather than saying what someone wants to hear. As the youngest brother of two, I have always had the familial aspect of brotherhood, but I now see that I have an unbreakable lifelong brotherhood with Lambda Phi Epsilon.

True brotherhood involves standing by each other through thick and thin, offering a pillar of strength in times of adversity, and celebrating each other’s victories with genuine joy. It is a commitment to understanding, empathy, and loyalty that transcends mere companionship. In the realm of brotherhood, there is a shared sense of responsibility to uplift one another, fostering an environment where individuals can grow, thrive, and face life’s challenges with the reassurance that they are not alone.

Brotherhood to me is a bond that goes beyond blood ties, built on shared experiences, trust, and mutual support. It embodies a sense of unity, understanding, and loyalty, providing a foundation for enduring connections and a support system in times of need. I am the oldest of my 10 siblings so I grew up being the one they looked to for support and answers, when things got hard I didn’t really have anyone I could look to other than myself. I grew up pretty closed off not showing much emotion or any wants or needs so that my siblings were taken care of first. Upon joining Lambda Phi Epsilon my brothers helped me breakdown those walls and open up. There were many emotional nights where my brothers and I opened up to one another saying whatever was on our minds. That showed me that they care about me and care about how I feel. Lambda Phi Epsilon has shown me what true brotherhood looks and feels like, I am honored to be apart of this brotherhood. I would go above and beyond for my brothers.

Brotherhood is an indescribable bond that forms
when vulnerability meets passion. To be vulnerable is to be authentic not just with yourself, but with others. After moving from Hawaii to Washington a few years ago, I struggled to be vulnerable and closed myself off to forming new relationships. However, after a while, I realized that I wasn’t living, I was just existing. So when a brother approached me concerning joining Lambda Phi Epsilon, I decided to take that chance. To be vulnerable to trying something new and meeting new people. Little did I know that it would be the best decision I’ve ever made. I’ve made countless memories and lifelong relationships since crossing. Joining this brotherhood has taught me how to love, not just myself, but others as well. Now Pullman feels like home, and it’s because I know all of my brothers are here. I love every single one of them. They have welcomed me with open arms, accepting me for all that I am. That acceptance is the epitome of what brotherhood is about, vulnerability and passion, a lesson that I will carry with me throughout my entire life.
