In 1902, Miami University admitted women <strong>to</strong> full status as students in university courses.<br />
The newly installed president of Miami University offered his support and assistance <strong>to</strong> six<br />
ambitious women who were interested in forming a sorority, thus giving Miami University<br />
its feminine counterpart <strong>to</strong> the three national fraternities that had been founded there.<br />
delta Zeta sorority was founded on Oc<strong>to</strong>ber 24, 1902, and within the following 18 years,<br />
had enough members <strong>to</strong> be qualified for the National Panhellenic Conference. Its founders<br />
dedicated their lives <strong>to</strong> the realization of high ideals they selected as their personal goals<br />
and the goals of the sorority. They made delta Zeta a vital, growing organization, which has<br />
become a strong national sisterhood of more than 95,000 young women and 190 chapters<br />
representing colleges and universities across the United States.<br />
delta Zeta gave <strong>Virginia</strong> <strong>Tech</strong> its first sorority on campus. Since its local founding in 1971,<br />
delta Zeta keeps growing stronger.<br />
A delta Zeta is a woman who knows the importance of sisterhood. She finds strength in<br />
the 130 amazing sisters that stand by her side when she needs it the most. A delta Zeta<br />
knows she is creating friendships that will last far beyond her college years. She knows<br />
throughout the course of her years at <strong>Virginia</strong> <strong>Tech</strong> that she is forming bonds with her<br />
sisters. A delta Zeta knows she belongs <strong>to</strong> one of the most social sororities on campus, but<br />
she never loses sight of her academic integrity. She upholds a unique personality that sets<br />
her apart from the thousands of women on the <strong>Virginia</strong> <strong>Tech</strong> campus. A delta Zeta is like<br />
no other; she’s proud <strong>to</strong> be a dee Zee.<br />
