The Ohio State University
Delta Zeta's national philanthropy, supported by both collegiate and alumnae chapters, is speech and hearing and The Painted Turtle camp. Delta Zeta's partnerships with and The Painted Turtle and The Starkey Hearing Foundation were announced at the 2006 National Convention. All of these important programs provide additional volunteer and giving opportunities for collegiate and alumnae members.
Chapters also support local and national speech and hearing organizations, such as Gallaudet University in Washington, D.C., the only four-year liberal arts school in the world devoted wholly to the needs, instruction, and training of young people who are deaf, and the House Ear Institute, which is one of the world's foremost research, teaching, and treatment centers in the field of hearing.
Sisterhood can't be limited to just one definition. In Delta Zeta, you find friendship, laughter, support, and limitless memories waiting to happen.
At Delta Zeta, we pride ourselves on our sisterhood. You'll always have someone to talk to, study with, go to dinner with, or to simply hang out with. Simply put, someone will always be there for you.
Some of our favorite sisterhood memories include Glee Tuesdays in our sorority house, seeing the midnight showing of Harry Potter, going on Spring Break together, trips to Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams, and participating in a high-ropes course.
Sisterhood, for us, is knowing that Delta Zeta is not four years but for life.
Delta Zeta participates in a variety of social events each year. Each fall Delta Zeta pairs with a fraternity for football block. Throughout the year there are date parties, formals and themed gatherings. Each event allows the sisters to bond with each other, members of other fraternities and sororities as well as members of The Ohio State community.
Join us for SpringRecruitment!
Dates coming soon!

Delta Zeta-Theta Chapter here at Ohio State was founded on January 21, 1911. Theta Chapter was actually founded by one of Delta Zeta's original founding members, Mary Collins. This past March, we were excited to celebrate our 100th year on campus--our Centennial--with sisters and alumnae.
