Sororities were begun to enrich the college campus experience. Today, the sorority experience goes beyond the college years. Delta Zetas actively engage with both campus and local communities through scholarship, philanthropy, and service. We believe in big ideas that make a positive impact – both locally and globally.
Join us to be a
life-long learner.
We prioritize academics above all else. Scholastic excellence is core to our membership and is the cornerstone of our membership experience. To continue leading from the front, every sister embodies this core value.
Have a young woman in mind who embodies these values?
What Is A Sorority
Sororities are vibrant women's organizations that cultivate lifelong friendships, foster leadership skills, and inspire personal growth. With chapters on college campuses, sororities like Delta Zeta offer diverse activities and events, creating countless opportunities for our members to grow and thrive.
Sororities first began as a way to fulfill the need for companionship among college students with common interests and backgrounds. Sorority membership today extends beyond the college campus into a woman’s life in her local community. For our outgoing seniors, Delta Zeta provides endless possibilities beyond your college years.
Membership in a sorority provides the opportunity to connect with others who share similar personal values. Delta Zeta members value friendship, scholarship and service to others.
“The object of a sorority is to unite its members in the bonds of sincere and lasting friendship, to stimulate one another in the pursuit of knowledge, to promote the moral and social culture of its members, and to develop plans for guidance and unity in action.”
- Constitution of the Delta Zeta Sorority, Article II, Sections 1. and 2.
Start A Chapter
From the expansion of the second Delta Zeta chapter in 1908 to today, Delta Zeta Sorority has always been open to the opportunities to extend our sisterhood and provide women the opportunity to share in the benefits of membership.
When researching a potential host institution for a new chapter, Delta Zeta carefully considers the following:
- The academic reputation of the school
- Interest in Greek life on campus and stable or increasing school enrollment
- Support and interest on the part of local alumnae and nearby Delta Zeta chapters
- Support from the campus administration and/or College Panhellenic Council*
If there is no Delta Zeta chapter on your college campus, please contact Delta Zeta National Headquarters for more information.
