Kappa Theta
California State University, San Bernardino Kappa Theta Chapter new members always enjoy learning The Creed of Zeta Tau Alpha. Because the Zeta Is Forever new member workbook breaks The Creed into parts, each member is able to break down the material and have the chance to comprehend and appreciate ZTA’s history and values on a higher level.
Kappa Iota
Moravian College This year, the chapter has focused on the idea of recruiting every day of the year. Making sure each member shows herself in a positive light within the chapter, on campus and on social media websites, Kappa Iota Chapter has strengthened its positive image to potential new members. As a result, the women pledged the most new members of any group on campus.
Kappa Lambda
University of Wisconsin Oshkosh While the chapter has always had a zero-tolerance policy about hazing, the My Sister, My Responsibility program has provided new insight. Each woman has
learned how to ensure that all of her sisters stay safe and how everyone can work together to protect the chapter. Members agree that the real-life examples helped the members to see that hazing can happen to anyone.
Kappa Mu
Linfield College This year, the chapter combined recruitment and philanthropy for the first time. During Philanthropy Night of Formal Recruitment, the Zetas and potential new members decorated white paper bags. These were then used as luminaries at a special ceremony during Kappa Mu Chapter’s Think Pink! Week to honor and remember those who have fought, or are still fighting, breast cancer.
Kappa Nu

Kappa Xi
The Richard Stockton College of New Jersey During one of the chapter’s My Sister, My Responsibility workshops, each member held onto one long piece of string. The facilitator then asked a series of questions about campus involvement, chapter involvement, Greek unity and more. Each time a member answered “yes” to a question, she let go of the string. In the end, the goal was to have no piece of the string on the floor. This activity helped to reinforce the fact that each member plays a part in the success of the chapter.
Kappa Omicron
Merrimack College The Why I am a Zeta module of My Sister, My Responsibility was very effective for Kappa Omicron Chapter because it helped members remember why they joined ZTA and what the Fraternity means to them.
