The Creed of Pi Lambda Phi
The Creed of a fraternity is the foundation from which all else is built. Pi Lambda Phi's foundation is unique because we were the first international fraternity to be formed as a response to sectarianism and discrimination. This is apparent in our creed.
"THAT ALL MEN ARE CREATED FREE AND EQUAL.
THAT NO SOCIETY OF MAN CAN FLOURISH UNLESS THE MEMBERS OF THAT SOCIETY ARE ENDOWED WITH THE OPPORTUNITIES AND PRIVILEGES OF FREEDOM.
THAT FREEDOM IMPLIES THE ELIMINATION OF PREJUDICE-THAT THE ELIMINATION OF PREJUDICE MEANS A BETTER UNDERSTANDING 'TWIXT MEN.
THAT IT IS INCUMBENT UPON ME TO FIGHT FOR SUCH FREEDOM EVEN WITH MY LIFE.
THAT IT IS INCUMBENT UPON ME IN MY PERSONAL LIFE TO BE DEVOTED TO THE HIGHEST STANDARDS OF HONESTY AND JUSTICE
THAT BECAUSE MY COUNTRY IS DEDICATED TO THE HIGHEST STANDARDS OF FREEDOM AND JUSTICE FOR ALL MEN OF ALL CREEDS, I HEREBY PLEDGE MY ALLEGIANCE TO MY COUNTRY AND TO ITS NATIONAL SYMBOL."
