The most distinguishing feature of Phi Iota Alpha Latino Fraternity is that it instills in its members a Global Latino perspective. It builds on the spirit and traditions of Pan-Americanism, and supports and promotes actions leading to an eventual unification of all the countries of Latin America, according to the Web site.
"What sets this fraternity apart from the rest is that the amount of emotional support from all the members is amazing," Bribiesca said. "For an organization to last 75 years and truly be the best and the oldest speaks volumes of the people who have been part of this brotherhood. After all I've gone through with Phiota, I have no doubt that the spirit of fraternity within this organization is second to none," he said.
Phi Iota Alpha members hope to have events that awaken interest in Latin American culture, Bribiesca said.
"Nothing is set in stone for next semester's events yet, but if we can combine the educational with the philanthropic and make it fun at the same time, I can only see a greater awareness of the fraternity on this campus," he said.
