As Delta Sigma Theta became incorporated throughout the United States, women were eager to join such an esteemed
organization. After 7 years of influence, respect within the community, and stepping outside of the social bounds of
a sorority, Zeta chapter was chartered. Soror Edwina Woodyard of Beta Chapter helped to establish the Zeta chapter at
the University of Cincinnati. Zeta chapter was chartered with a distinguished group of both graduate (G) and
undergraduate (U) women. These women lead the way to African American greeks on the University's campus. The Zeta
Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta was the first African American greek organization chartered at the University of Cincinnati.
The sisterhood and legacy of Zeta chapter has forged ahead and continues with the values and efforts of our chartering
members. The current Zeta chapter Executive Board is listed below:
We strive forcefully to make changes at the University of Cincinnati. Programs are continuously constructed with the
efforts of making an impact on African Americans, women, and our community. Please check our calendar of

suggesting a program to our chapter, please email us with your thoughts.
We do our utmost to make changes, increase awareness, and enhance the experience students, professors, and
community residents have at the University of Cincinnati. We dedicate our time, skills, and resources to reaching out
to the community. We develop initiatives and procedures that we follow. In all the course of action that we take
we make sure that we adhere to the principles set out by the Grand chapter and the legacy left to us in Zeta chapter.
