The two you just said. Theta Chi, by some, is already considered top tier. They’re really sweet guys who throw amazing tailgates and everyone likes them. Lambda chi is getting a dope new house but it isn’t in Greek town, also good guys. Can’t go wrong with either.

If we were to talk only about superficial things:

Theta Chi and Lambda are similar in numbers (116 vs 124)

Lambda’s new house will be done this year but Theta Chi will have to wait until 2019 to recieve an older house. However the Theta Chi house be in the heart of Greektown while Lambda’s will be some distance away. Either way though you won’t be living in-house as a Freshman so it doesn’t matter.

Theta Chi has a shorter pledgeship compared to Lambda by around 4-weeks.

Both Lambda and Theta Chi are known around campus for being standup guys and also for having a great brotherhood. Knowing both Lambdas and Theta Chis I can say that every brother cares about each other and is willing to stick out for one another.

Both Lambda and Theta Chi don’t have a reputation for hazing. Rumor is that Theta Chi got in trouble for some activities last Spring and Lambda underwent investigation from Nationals but neither turned up anything serious and both got off with very minor sanctions.

Theta Chi is known for throwing good tailgates and darties while Lambda is seen as a more serious and academically focused house. If it were up to me I’d go Lambda because it’s a bit more established on campus, but if I went Theta Chi too I would happy also.

You really can’t go wrong with either. Both houses are rising quickly to take the places of SAE and Pike.

Because if you can't go Greek, go TKE. And if you can't go TKE, go home.

TKE might have a good house but the issue with them is that they don't have the numbers (70-80 is not a good spot for a fraternity to be in) or the quality of guys to truly ascend to the middle or top tier. Lambda and Theta Chi, on the other hand have both the numbers and quality to compete with the traditional top tier fraternities with the exception of probably Beta.

Renting someones house is not the same as getting your own house. But it is certainly a step up.

Like mentioned above TKE and Lambda Chi are on the rise but Theta Chi is definitely the best of the three. They are the king of darties and going to moving into Fiji's old house soon.
