ZBT was founded at Columbia University in 1898 as the first secret society for Jewish men. It operated as the universal organization under a "city" charter from New York City from 1898 to 1903. In April of 1903 it was voted by the membership to change the organization to the First Greek-Letter Fraternity for Jewish men. ZBT was also the first Jewish fraternity to establish a Canadian Chapter in 1910 and the first Jewish Fraternity to receive full recognition by the NIC in 1912.
