There's a photo on the URI web site that clearly shows young women wearing letters that say "ZETA", not "ZTA". I checked the "All the ZTA chapters ever" thread here, and it's listed as a colony for spring 2009.

What's the story? Was this a local sorority started with the intention of affiliating with ZTA, and they are now achieving that goal?

Thanks in advance.
