We are the Germany Zetas
Building On The Principles of ZETA While Blazing New Paths
Our Sorority
Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. was founded January 16, 1920, at Howard University, Washington, D.C. It was within this environment that five coeds envisioned a sorority which would directly affect positive change, chart a course of action for the 1920s and beyond.
Our Chapter
Mu Theta Zeta Chapter was charted in Darmstadt, Germany July 1, 1983, by five PHENOMENAL women by the names of Meriel Waker, Valerie Griffin, Irma Watson, Amelia Reid, and Patricia Bates. These finer women were teachers, counselors, and servicewomen that made a dream into a reality by creating the first and only graduate chapter in Germany.
Our Service
Mu Theta Zeta Chapter is just one part of a global community-conscious, action-oriented organization. We strive to continue building on the principles of ZETA while blazing new paths in the world.

We pride ourselves in being able to support the educational dreams of DoDea and international students through our generous scholarship program.
