Opie25, thanks for mentioning this. I'd like to add a little to it. Dr. Benton assisted our founders in writing our ritual. However, he was never initiated into Delta Zeta. We hold him in high esteem for his support of our organization in its earliest stages, and he holds a permanent spot in our history book because of that.
