Zeta Beta Tau was founded at the City College of New York in 1898, and for over a century it has spread the ideas of intellectual awareness, social responsibility, integrity and brotherly love. With over 130,000 members initiated, ZBT boasts an expansive national network which includes brothers such as screen-writer and actor Harold Ramis, Baskin-Robbins founder Burton Baskins, Macy’s founder George Macy, FOX chairman of the board Samuel Rosen and Warner Brother’s president Jack Warner. Mu Colony is the newest member of the IFC at UGA.

       For all members, ZBT emphasizes a “brotherhood circle” that places equal importance on each of the following six ideals: Service, Bonding, Education, Social, Alumni and Athletics. The brothers of Mu Colony have a cumulative 3.69 GPA with multiple members in the Honors Program. Other campus activities include the Residence Hall Association, the Redcoat Band, UGA Heroes, Hillel at UGA and Relay for Life, to name just a few. Currently ZBT is taking part in a softball intramural league and is looking forward to participating in future sports. ZBT is also service-oriented organization, with our national philanthropy being the Children’s Miracle Network.  Along with this we also participate in projects in and around the Athens community. One of the most important aspects offered to anyone interested in joining Zeta Beta Tau is leadership opportunities on many different levels. Being a new fraternity, we make it possible for each brother to come in and shape his Greek experience in a way that he wants, as well as building bonds and friendships that will last him throughout and beyond his college career.
