History
Our
Who We Are
Beta Zeta Beta Houston Alumnae Chapter was formed on November 21, 1944 by eleven women bound by the sisterhood of Alpha Chi Omega and representing collegiate chapters from Pennsylvania, Illinois, Indiana, Massachusetts, Oklahoma, and Wisconsin. We thank our founding sisters for their devotion and love to Alpha Chi Omega and for providing us with a means to continue our sisterhood in Houston.
We hope you find Beta Zeta Beta a great way to reconnect with former classmates and meet other sisters with similar interests. We are a diverse group of women comprised of recent college graduates, young professionals, stay-at-home moms, experienced business and community leaders, and distinguished members who have enjoyed the bond of sisterhood for over 70 years in Houston. We feature a broad spectrum of members who enjoy the common bond of sisterhood. We hope you will come join us!
Beta Zeta Beta also supports local collegiate chapters Gamma Upsilon (University of Houston) and Iota Pi (Houston Baptist University).
