Beta Zeta Chapter of AOII installed today at Kennesaw State University
Congratulations to our new sisters at the 188th collegiate chapter installed into Alpha Omicron Pi Fraternity! Welcome!!! I am waiting to hear what Beta Zeta means. That's my favorite part of new installations, the sub-mottos!

An excellent choice in chapter name, I must say.

Congratulations to AOII. I've never attended a charter/installation for Kappa Alpha Theta and would really love to, some day.

Just found out that the Beta Zeta sub-motto is "Live simply, love always." I like it! Sounds very AOII!

The sisters of Beta Zeta chose their chapter designation to honor our International President Barb Zipperian. Isn't that sweet?! I'm sure Barb is very honored. I think this is her first chapter installation.

How did you find that out? That's so sweet though. I'm curious to know if that's the first time a chapter has chosen its name to reflect an International President (or Past International President).

I asked on FB. I wanted to know why they picked those letters since unlike most chapters, their letters don't match their sub-motto. No to your second question. Phi Chi at Univ of Chicago was named for Peg Crawford (one of my favorite PIPs) because she was instrumental in getting AOII chosen as the first NPC to colonize that campus. There are many other chapters who were named after influential alumnae, not just International Presidents (Auburn is another example), or even other collegiate chapters that assisted in colonization (ex. Kappa at Randolph-Macon helped colonize the chapter at Southern Methodist so the women at Southern Methodist named their chapter Nu Kappa in honor of Kappa. Both are now inactive.)

Ah, Peg. I have heard about her from our girls that met her at Convention last year. Maybe I'll meet her one day haha.
Thanks for answering my question! You're just full of knowledge lol.
Best of luck to Beta Zeta!
