Neal. These women dared to depart from the traditional coalitions for black women and sought to establish a new organization predicated on the ideals of scholarship, service, sisterly love, and finer womanhood. acaDeMics: GPA New Member Initiation Requirement:2.5 GPA Active Membership Requirement: 2.5 Since its inception, the sorority has expanded to encompass more than 500 graduate and collegiate chapters around the world, including locations in the Caribbean Islands, West Africa, and Germany. Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., was the first to charter a chapter in Africa; to centralize its operations in a national headquarters; to form adult and youth auxiliary groups—the Amicae, Archonettes, Amicettes, and Pearlettes; and is the first and only sorority to be constitutionally bound to a brother fraternity, Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. Zeta Phi Beta’s national and local programs include endowment of its National Educational Foundation and involvement with the March of dimes, Stork’s Nest, and Z-HOPE. As part of a nonprofit organization, Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., chapters and auxiliary groups have given numerous hours of voluntary service to educate the public, assist youth, provide scholarships, support organized charities, and promote legislation for social and civic change. Zeta Phi Beta’s plan of action includes education, community volunteerism, drug and substance abuse prevention, health and wellness awareness, economic development, governmental affairs, and chapter management. The illustrious Upsilon Lambda chapter of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., was founded on the Virginia Tech campus on May 22, 1982, by seven young women. Today, the Upsilon Lambda chapter still excels as a community-conscious, action-oriented organization. As the chapter continues to grow, the women of the Upsilon Lambda chapter strive on a daily basis to uphold the values that make Zeta Phi Beta unique. The ladies of Zeta serve the Virginia Tech community through various Z-HOPE events, the Big Event, Relay for Life, Walk for Cystic Fibrosis, American Heart Association, the Red Cross, and donations to local charities, as well as clothing and canned food drives.
PHC PANhELLENIC COuNCIL PHC The National Panhellenic Conference (NPC), founded in 1902, is the umbrella organization for 26 national and international women’s fraternities and sororities. Members are represented on more than 620 college campuses in the United States and Canada, and in more than 3,500 alumnae associations. Established NPC chapters and alumnae associations are comprised of more than 3.5 million women worldwide. When you join one of the 13 National Panhellenic Conference sororities at Virginia Tech, you also become a member of the Panhellenic Association. The Panhellenic Association and its sororities are led by Virginia Tech’s Panhellenic Council (PHC), which is made up of elected officers and delegates from all sororities. The Virginia Tech NPC is the governing body for the 13 chartered Panhellenic sororities at Virginia Tech, and is responsible for organizing activities of mutual concern and interest to all the sororities. The National Panhellenic Conference was founded on the principles of cooperation and mutual assistance. At the first meeting in 1902, chapters worked together to establish guidelines and recommendations for acquiring and educating new members, as well as chapter policy and procedure. Together the 26 recognized organizations were able to establish a policy of governance for and with one another that would last for more than 100 years. Portico 2009-2010 65
