The Theta Chapter at the University of California at Davis was established on January 15, 2000 by seven young Latino men who felt the need to create and organize a machine that promoted higher learning for all Latinos by focusing on their retention level at the University level, and by helping them to excel in today's competitive society. These founders labored to create an organization that would serve as an active force within the University of California at Davis. Already our presence has been felt on this campus through our community service projects, fundraisers, and socials.
