Who we are
The Beta Eta Chapter of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated was chartered April 12, 1975 at the University of Cincinnati by five distinguished women: Debbie Tribble, Lonita Ware, Pam Kelly, Debra Hill, and Vera Williams. Since chartering, the Beta Eta Chapter has granted membership to many prominent women at the University of Cincinnati such as, the first black Homecoming Queen, Vera Williams. There have been over 100 women that have become members of the Sorority through the chapter and they have continually been active on campus and within the national organization. Throughout the years, Beta Eta and its members have been recognized for numerous honors including: Deans List, being tapped into Rho Lambda, Fraternal Values Society Greek Women's of the Year recipient, Recipient of Best Sorority/Fraternity Collaboration, having the highest chapter GPA in the National Pan-Hellenic Council and having a 100% graduation rate.
