ABOUT US

Founded November 11, 1874 at Syracuse University

Gamma Phi Beta was one of the first women’s organizations to be called a sorority in North America!

Standing upon the core values of Love, Labor, Learning, and Loyalty, our mission is to build confident women of character who celebrate sisterhood and make a difference in the world around us. Our vision is to inspire the highest type of womanhood.

“The Zeta Rho Chapter was installed at Texas A&M University-College Station in College Station, Texas, on February 21, 2004.”

“The long-awaited Initiation and Installation of Zeta Rho Chapter of Gamma Phi Beta commenced on Saturday, February 21, 2004, at the Hilton Hotel in College Station, Texas. After a day of learning about the ritual foundation of our Sorority, the charter class of Zeta Rho met to celebrate becoming the 161st colony to cross over into the ranks of "chapter."”

Excerpt from the Spring 2004 issue of The Crescent, page 18.

Since then, Zeta Rho has welcomed hundreds of young women into the sisterhood of Gamma Phi Beta.
