Transcript | The Zeta Sigma Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. was chartered on May 29,1969 by 23 aspiring young women. Zeta Sigma was the first of the eight Black Greek letter organizations on the UH campus. These women maintained high standards and principles. A 3.0 GPA was necessary for membership and had to be maintained. The Zeta Sigma chapter paved the way for other Pan-Hellenic members to follow. Today, the zeta sigma chapter is a studious and hardworking as ever. It's commitment to public service is still being maintained with a minimum of two public service events a month. The sorority also holds fund-raiser for it's annual scholarships fund. Each year it awards a $1000 scholarship to an incoming African- American freshmen student. The sorority had many firsts this year. It held a highly acclaimed basketball tournament in October and a Valentine's Ball in February. Both events were noted for bringing unity to students at UH. The sorority is also honored as a finalist by the Blood Center of Houston for being one of the top organization of the decade for helping with blood drives. The sorority has one blood drive a semester. The winning team of the Delta Sigma Theta's Basketball Shoot-out celebrate after their victory. Photo by Cesar Alvarez.
