Delta Zeta
To build character and cultivate the truest and deepest friendships among its members. To stimulate one another in the pursuit of knowledge and the attainment of a high standard of morality; to inculcate elevated sentiments and noble principals and to afford each other every possible assistance and to invite all the attainment of a memorable fame.
The best part about being a Delta Zeta is that you always have a friend who wants to do the same things you do.
It doesn't matter if you want to go to a football or basketball game, sledding, shopping, travel for spring break, study abroad, or even the library! There is always a sister who will be by your side!

Delta Zeta annually pairs with Theta Chi in a Haunted House. As a partner, we help set up as well as dress up for the occasion! This event takes place around Halloween time and all proceeds are donated. Below are some pictures from the event:
Delta Zeta invites children from the Hanna Center for a Christmas Party every year! The Christmas Party benefits children from less fortunate homes in the Lafayette area. Delta Zetas pair up with children and participate in activities such as games, face painting, touring a fire truck, dinner, cookie decorating, and of course enjoy a visit from Santa! Every child goes home with a stocking and gift from their wish list. Photos from this event can be viewed by clicking on the bottom right corner of the picture!
What it is: Bowl-A-Rama is an annual event where Delta Zeta pairs with Phi Gamma Delta for a Bowling Competition. Contestants are encouraged to participate in the theme and other fun contests!

The Starkey Hearing Foundation is a non-profit organization that distributes hearing aids to the hearing impaired that may not otherwise have a chance to hear.
