Lambda Lambda Lambda Strikes Back

Friends Start Fraternity From Scratch

There's a new frat at the University of Connecticut. In what started as a joke, 9 guys and a girl started "Lambda Lambda Lambda" in tribute to the 1994 film "Revenge of the Nerds."

The university's department of Greek Life will not recognize the fraternity, but they have been categorized as a 'special interest' organization.

UConn's newest frat plans to begin its first rush today, with about 30 students expected to participate. Brothers said that students interested in joining can also attend next week's involvement fair.

"It shouldn't be a stress to be in a frat," said founder Nick Carroll, "The openness of our frat is what I love."
