In a society where women were discouraged from entering college due to their "insufficient brainpower" and 'delicate health", four women from Syracuse University came together to form a society they named Gamma Phi Beta. Now, over 130 years later, we celebrate the vision and dedication of those women and all that have come since then, who have built Gamma Phi Beta into one of the largest and most well-respected sororities in the world. Emory's Zeta Tau chapter was founded in 2005.
