ZBT's Grand Alpha Chapter was founded at CCNY in 1903 when it was decided to change ZBT from a secret society of Jew men founded in 1898 at Columbia Univ. to a greek-letter fraternity. CCNY-Alpha was one of ZBT top 20 chapters from 1903 to 1960's. However, the chapter had closed after when Phi Sigma Delta and Phi Epsilon Pi merged with ZBT National in 1970. There has been some talk by the national expansion committee to re-activate the chapter.

ZBT's Beta Xi chapter is still active at CUNY Brooklyn

I know one more national fraternity (AEPi?) started at CCNY. We should be considered a triad....the CCNY triad

Psst. Try www.aka1908.org .

I'll introduce myself later, but I wanted to chime in on this, seeing as how I'm from NYC and all, and can provide some insight.

as far as the NPHC goes:

Alpha Phi Alpha:
ETA Chapter - All Senior CUNY in the Bronx & Manhattan as well as NYU, Columbia University, Mercy College, etc.
Delta Chi - All Senior CUNY in Brooklyn and Staten Island as well as Poly Tech, Pratt, etc.
Theta Epsilon - All Senior CUNY in Queens, as well as St. John's University.


Alpha Kappa Alpha:
Lambda Chapter - I know for certain they cover CUNY Hunter
Xi Xi Chapter - Chartered @ CUNY Lehman, still there.
Alpha Mu - Brooklyn, not sure which schools they cover/don't cover

Kappa Alpha Psi:
Omicron - I know they have membership at CUNY Lehman, not sure of other CUNY schools

Omega Psi Phi: Not sure

Delta Sigma Theta:
Rho Chapter - Columbia University
Epsilon Tau - NYU, and I think most/all Senior CUNY in Manhattan & the Bronx.

Phi Beta Sigma:
Theta Gamma - Citywide, includes CUNY Lehman
Xi Alpha - CUNY Baruch
I know there are more chapters at CUNY schools, can't remember them off-hand.

Zeta Phi Beta
Epsilon Chapter - CUNY Hunter, CUNY John Jay, CUNY Baruch, CUNY Lehman among other schools. They have a chapter in Brooklyn as well.

Sigma Gamma Rho:
Alpha Pi - Metropolitan Chapter - Covers CUNY, not sure which ones.

Iota Phi Theta
I know they have presence @ CUNY City College.

This is by no means a definitive list. I am an Alpha from ETA Chapter, so everyone else I just plugged in from what I know. As someone noted before me... it is a different type of beast as far as Greek Life as a whole, but we are all about and still goin' hard.

Also... there are many NALFO (Latino) affiliated organizations out here that are on CUNY campuses, such as Lambda Upsilon Lambda, Lambda Pi Chi, Omega Phi Beta, Lambda Theta Alpha, Sigma Lambda Upsilon, Sigma Lambda Chi, Gamma Ce Upsilon, and more...

PBS - CCNY:Alpha Delta, Brooklyn College: Beta Lambda
ZPhiB - Brooklyn College:Omicron Beta, Queens College/SJU & other Queens Schools:Omicron Alpha

I think the Que's chapter is Epsilon...

I knew there were more... thanks for correcting/adding to the list.
