ZBT at Purdue
Our chapter of ZBT Alpha Alpha at Purdue was thought to be introduced as a new chapter in 2011. When we went to get our papers, they found old documents from 1918 that show that we had a chapter at Purdue for that year. Does anyone know how I could find out more information about this? We have been searching and haven't seemed to come up with anything else.

Contact our IHQ- Director of Chapter Affaris. Since it is considered an historiccal chapter, there should be documents in the archives regarding the founding of Alpha Alpha Chapter.

Good Luck...
The School has its yearbooks online at http://earchives.lib.purdue.edu/cdm/...lection/debris
A search for the phrase Zeta Beta Tau got *one* hit, from 1946 (a students Senior Bio included Zeta Beta Tau), by comparison (my guess is a transfer to Purdue) , a search for Lambda Chi Alpha got 95 hits (and that indicates how many yearbooks had it) My honest guess given that is that the Letters were assigned to Purdue and either no chapter came into existence, or the group never chartered. My fraternity (Alpha Phi Omega) had a chapter like that, in 2001 they thought they were rechartering the chapter at Ferrum (which had chartered in 1970), but on further investigation found out the group had never actually gone through the chartering ceremony, so instead the group chartered the chapter, but with the letters that had been assigned in 1970. |

In the days before massive instant social communication (1980's) my sorority's Spring magazine issue editor wrote-up two new colonies and mentioned their Greek Letter chapter names (fake ex: Tau Beta and Sigma Beta). By the following Spring's magazine issue, no further mention had been made of those two colonies. It turns out both never chartered. Only one of those two Greek letter chapter names was re-used since then, but why the other Greek letter chapter name was never re-used I've never heard. Perhaps we someday want to re-apply for a colony on that campus? /end lane swerve |
