About Us
Delta Zeta Sorority was established on October 24, 1902, at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio.
The Beta Lambda chapter at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville was established on campus in 1933.
Our purpose is to unite our members in the bonds of sincere and lasting friendship, to encourage one another in the pursuit of knowledge, to promote values-based living, and embrace social responsibility.
Delta Zeta’s mission is to be a lifelong, values-based membership experience for women. Delta Zeta’s vision is to be a global women’s organization whose shared values truly inspire action and impact lives.
With over 400 collegiate sisters, we carry these six shared values which serve as a guide for our membership journey: friendship, curiosity, generosity, empowerment, citizenship, and belonging.
Delta Zeta's colors are rose and green, our flower is the killarney rose, and our mascot is the turtle. Our badge is the Roman lamp, and our jewel is the diamond.
A LETTER FROM OUR PRESIDENT
Hello friends,
Welcome to Delta Zeta’s Beta Lambda chapter - a sisterhood that embodies the values of friendship, belonging, curiosity, generosity, empowerment, and citizenship.
As President of Delta Zeta, I am thrilled to welcome you to a community where we uplift and support each other on our journey of personal growth and development.
Made up of 400 women, our chapter was founded on the principles of promoting lasting friendships, embracing diversity, and fostering commitment to service. Together we strive for academic excellence, leadership development, and making a positive difference in the world around us. We actively work to help each member feel empowered, confident, driven, and accepted. Delta Zeta provides opportunities for our sisters to grow emotionally, intellectually, and to guide them on a journey to seek their life’s purpose.
Delta Zeta has taught me the true meaning of friendship, and the importance of understanding and patience. Through the relationships I have built in Delta Zeta I have always felt supported and encouraged to seek opportunities. I can truly say that I have found a group of women who I can call my best friends, and I am extremely fortunate to have found a home within my sisterhood.
As President I promise to represent the chapter with integrity and honesty. I will ensure that every member’s voice is heard and respected, and I will foster a culture of collaboration and teamwork. I am excited to see what’s next for our chapter and I look forward to guiding this amazing group of women.
With love,
Izzy Nardotti
President, Beta Lambda Chapter
Delta Zeta at the University of Tennessee
