Lambda Phi Xi Multicultural Sorority was established in the Spring of 2004. It was at this time that Our Founding Ladies had a Vision for a Multicultural Sorority. These two Ladies desired Sisterhood and felt the need to create an organization that both of their respective Schools were lacking. These Founders wanted an all-inclusive organization that focused on the idea of the complete woman, while at the same time creating a multicultural sisterhood whose focus would lie with the issues of women living in the postmillennial era. 

​

While their Vision was strong, the road to building the organization they longed for would not be easy. Soon Joined by three other women desiring the same type of sisterhood, these Five Ladies pulled together to lay the Foundation of Lambda Phi Xi Multicultural Sorority. The Five Founding Ladies felt that their organization should hold true to the Ideals of Educational Achievement, Strength through Diversity, as well as Service Excellence  and Sisterhood Unparalleled.

 

While at times it proved quite challenging, they remained devoted to the task of bringing Lambda Phi Xi to realization, and on January 27, 2004, what had once been a held as a dream, finally became a reality. These Five Ladies would be known as the Amethyst Founders of Lambda Phi Xi Multicultural Sorority, with Lambda Phi Xi having joint Founding birthplaces at Michigan State University and Purdue University Calumet respectively.
