Purpose: The purpose of Theta Chi is to give men at UT the opportunity to be a part of a truly life-changing experience by providing them with the tools to grow as a student, leader, and man.

Theta Chi teaches, inspires, and empowers any member to be successful both inside and outside of the classroom and throughout their lives.
Membership: Men should be well-rounded, service-oriented individuals who place a high level of value on their academic work. Theta Chi also looks for men who have leadership potential and the desire to become involved on campus and within the community. Theta Chi encourages diversity in its membership and recruits men who are genuine people and true gentlemen.
Functions: Theta Chi Fraternity provides endless opportunities for social, leadership, and service involvement on the UT campus and in the community of Austin.
