Welcome to Zeta Beta Tau, Mu Chapter at Boston University. The chapter was first established in 1908 at BU, and today consists of brothers from various backgrounds and involved with a wide variety of activities--including philanthropic and service endeavors, unique social events, brotherhood activities, and more!
It all began on December 29, 1898, when a group of elite students was gathered together from several New York City universities to form a youth society called Z.B.T. By 1909, Zeta Beta Tau had established 13 Chapters throughout the Northeast, including Mu Chapter at Boston University in 1908!
The history of mergers in the Zeta Beta Tau Brotherhood followed a pattern of linking common traditions and goals. In 1959, Phi Alpha merged into Phi Sigma Delta, and in 1961 Kappa Nu merged into Phi Epsilon Pi. In 1970, Phi Sigma Delta and Phi Epsilon Pi merged into Zeta Beta Tau.
Mu Chapter remains one of the oldest ZBT chapters in the country, celebrating the 100th anniversary of our founding just recently. Although our chapter has come and gone with the changing popularity of Greek Life at BU, we maintain a strong tradition and heritage that has not been lost through the years. As did the men before us, we remain committed to Intellectual Awareness, Social Responsibility, Integrity, and Brotherly Love.
