A MESSAGE FROM OUR prESIDENT
The Zeta Beta Tau Fraternity was built on the four elements of our credo: Intellectual Awareness, Social Responsibility, Integrity and Brotherly Love. These four qualities not only define our conduct within the fraternity, but also the values that our brotherhood honors, day in and day out. It is these four qualities that have inspired our brothers to impact our community here at UCSB in a positive way, participating in a passionate manner in any way they can. In addition to the range of involvement our members have from research and internships to extracurricular activities, these men have a true desire to be the best version of themselves and better those around them. Our gentlemen have become more proactive in chapter programming, placing an emphasis on mental health and diversity and inclusion. We have begun devoting ourselves to these topics because of the role we believe they play in our community as well as the importance of ensuring all of our brothers are heard and cared for by every member.
My experience with ZBT has been nothing short of phenomenal. Going into college, I was hesitant to join a fraternity, but once I met all the guys at rush my mind was quickly swayed. Without this house, I would not have nearly the same amount of amazing friendships and connections as I do now. Rush ZBT, you won't regret it.
