Established in 1952, Alpha Delta Gamma (ΑΔΓ) is the longest continuously operating fraternity at LMU. Scholastic achievement, service, spirituality, school spirit, and social engagement are at the core of our organization and represent our 5 S’s: the values that guide us in everything we do as an organization and brotherhood. Coming from all walks of life, we also value diversity and through abiding by these core tenets we aim to provide an accepting social environment to foster the growth of leaders. But, most importantly we provide a supportive atmosphere based on our motto, “A brother who is helped by a brother is like a city walled.”

Beta Theta Pi (ΒΘΠ) is a North American social fraternity that was founded in 1839 at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. The five core values espoused by Beta Theta Pi are cultivation of intellect, responsible conduct, mutual assistance, integrity and trust. These are the underpinnings for their mission to "develop men of principle for a principled life." In 1879, Beta Theta Pi became the first college fraternity to publish its constitution. Beta is known as the Leadership Fraternity, which is displayed by its many members in student leadership at LMU. The Eta Alpha chapter of Beta joined the Loyola Marymount University community in 2007, and hosts Beta Boat Races each year to raise money for their philanthropy, homelessness.
