So you're thinking about joining the greatest organization in the world? I say organization because "Zeta Phi Beta Sigma" is just that- one organization with two distinctly unique parts, Zeta Phi Beta Sorority and Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, to serve the needs of the Black American Community. Here's a few things for you to think about before making your decison:
I would advise you to look into all of the other NPHC organizations so that you can make an informed decision on choosing which organization you'd like to affiliate yourself with. Membership in Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. or Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. is not just a "college experience", but a lifetime commitment. Be prepared to give your all once you join.
Reasons to join Sigma or Zeta
If you have a desire to help the community and uplift the image of the Black American community
Sigma and Zeta are for you. We've got PLENTY of work we can put you to doing as soon as you cross over.
If you want to join a real brotherhood and sisterhood
Sigma and Zeta are for you. Those who join Sigma not only get true brothers for life, but true sisters as well. Likewise, those who pledge Zeta not only get true sisters for life, but true brothers as well.
If you want to create positive things in life more important than just wearing letters, going to parties, or hooking up with hoochies or ballers
Sigma and Zeta are for you. From their inception, Sigma and Zeta have been community service oriented. When other organizations were concerned about skin color and status, Sigma and Zeta were concerned with serving the community (sorry if anyone's offended, but it's history!).
If you find an inborn desire and commitment to our principles and philosophies
Sigma and Zeta are for you. We always need people who are about the business of our organizations.
