Why I went ZTA
Coming into college as a freshman, I never thought I would have as many friend as I do because I don’t live on campus and I don’t have the roommate and all the hall mates. Once I got here though, everything changed. My good friend Kellan, who I went to high school with, is part of a sorority and told me I should come out hang out with her on the ZTA hall with her and some of her “sisters”. The second I go on their hall, I knew I wanted to be a part of their sorority.

So of course I told her what was going on and she went and got her roommate Morgan, to see if she could help out any.

Some of them said I was because they wanted to have friends that would be there for a lifetime. Others said because ZTA’s philanthropies and services really hit home to them. Their philanthropies, which I didn’t learn about until a couple of days later, are Breast Cancer Education and Awareness. That really hit home to me as well, because I lost a great grandmother to breast cancer. Also not knowing anyone here and knowing that joining this organization would help me make friends. On top of all of this, hearing the girls talk about how much fun they have doing: semi-formal dances, formal dances, intermural sports, breast cancer walks, and even helping each other out with their school work.

Alpha Epsilon Pi Research Paper

Abbreviated AEPi, it is The Jewish Fraternity, and an organization I am proud to say I am a part of. But what do I mean by the “The”? Well, the big three Jewish fraternities in America were Alpha Epsilon Pi, Zeta Beta Tau (founded 1898), and Sigma Alpha Mu (founded 1909) (Zeta);(Sigma). All three were founded as Jewish fraternities, who therefore only admitted Jews to their ranks. However, as the 20th century progressed, America was rocked by war after war, which sapped the nation…
