Do You Know What Today Is...

It's our Zetaversary!!!

I'm 2 and I can't believe it. A few weeks ago I was hanging out at the Sigma suite and I was actually the oldest in the room. I was hanging out with a bunch of neos (with sand behind the ears)


We've had good times and bad but I wouldn't replace any of you. Thanks for the memories.

Let me tell you about my Soror

Lullelia W. Harrison was the first paid executive secretary of any Greek-letter organization. Lullelia was initiated into Theta Chapter at Wiley College in Marshall, Texas, in 1929 at the age of 16 and has worked diligently for Zeta ever since. She served her chapter first and went on to serve her region from 1936 to 1943, at which time she became a dynamic grand basileus. Following this Herculean task, she became the first executive secretary. From the Mighty Southern Region's Website Mighty Southern Region

She worked for Zeta for the last 79 years.

Author of Torchbearers of a legacy: A history of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., 1920-1997

Regional Director of the Mighty Southern Region

Under the administration of Past National President Lullelia W. Harrison, the first Amicae chapter was organized in Omaha, Nebraska in 1947, making Zeta the first sorority in the National Pan-Hellenic Council to organize an auxiliary group. Philly Zetas

Thus, in July 1994, at the 74th Grand Boule’ in Orlando, Florida, the Pearlette Club and the results of its pilot program was presented to the International President Jylla Moore-Foster. The Honorable Soror Lullelia W. Harrison presented a motion to the national body to officially adopt the “Pearlettes” as a national youth auxiliary of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. and the idea was graciously embraced.
