Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. Emerging from the Great Depression, Status Quo, and Racial Tension the female college community was in need of a change, a need for an organization to rise, one that believed in the inner values opposed to outer perception of beauty, one that believed that helping others and optimism through all adversities. Founded January 16, 1920, Zeta began as an idea conceived by five coeds at Howard University in Washington D.C.: Arizona Cleaver, Myrtle Tyler, Viola Tyler, Fannie Pettie and Pearl Neal. These five women, also known as our Five Pearls, dared to depart from the traditional coalitions for black women and sought to establish a new organization predicated on the precepts of Scholarship, Service, Sisterly Love and Finer Womanhood. It was the ideal of the Founders that the Sorority would reach college women in all parts of the country who were sorority minded and desired to follow the founding principles of the organization. Founder Arizona Cleaver Stemmons was quoted to say “Let's establish a new sisterhood, and then to see it grow from five girls to the present status, indeed gives me quite a thrill. Yet, I am humble and grateful that so many have been and still are willing to go the Zeta way”.
