International President
Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc.
a brief history of
Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc.
F
ounded January 16, 1920, Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. was
born out of the simple belief that sorority elitism and
socializing should not overshadow the real mission for
progressive organizations - to address societal mores, ills,
prejudices, poverty, and health concerns of the day. Zeta began
as an idea conceived by five coeds at Howard University in
Washington D.C., predicated on the precepts of Scholarship,
Service, Sisterhood and Finer Womanhood.
The Five Founders of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority,
Incorporated
Arizona Cleaver (Stemons): Served as the first president of Alpha
Chapter and the first national president of the Sorority. She
completed her graduate and post-graduate studies in the field of
social work at Howard University.
Pearl Neal: After graduating from Howard University’s
Conservatory of Music, continued her studies at the Juilliard
School of Music. In 1938, she was the first black woman in New
York to earn a master’s degree in music from Columbia University.
Neal taught music in North Carolina public schools and served
as a director of seniors majoring in music at Teachers College in
Winston Salem, NC.
Myrtle Tyler (Faithful): A graduate of Howard University and
the second national president of the sorority. She was a high
school mathematics and English teacher.
Viola Tyler (Goings): Graduated from Howard University with
a teaching degree and a major in math. She taught school in
Ohio for many years and was always very active in community
affairs.
Fannie Pettie (Watts): Graduated from Howard with a Bachelor
of Arts degree in education and taught at junior and senior high
schools in Savannah, Georgia.

ZETA CHAPTERS
After its founding in Washington, D.C. Zeta’s expansion
pattern continued in the Deep South, including Talladega,
AL, Lorman, MS and Charlotte, NC.
Zeta’s first two chapters after Howard University were
established at historically black universities--Morris Brown
College and Morgan State College--which were followed
by a San Antonio-based citywide chapter.
In 1923, Theta chapter was established at Wiley College,
making it the first chapter of any black sorority to organize
a collegiate chapter in Texas. Zeta continued to make a
concerted effort to develop chapters at the nation’s
historically black colleges and universities and in other areas
of the South.
Zeta began work to develop a chapter in Africa in the 1940s.
Many African students attended American universities in
the 1930s and 1940s, and several of these students became
members of Zeta Phi Beta. An application was submitted,
and the charter was granted in December 1948 for the
establishment of a Zeta graduate chapter in Monrovia,
Liberia, Africa.
