Meet Theta Tau
At Theta Tau, we are proud to be both Tar Heels and Carolina Zetas! Founded in 1979, our chapter has been home to some of the most genuine and talented women at the University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill. Membership in ZTA not only brings with it countless memories and experiences which will shape its members for years to come, but also a sisterhood that cannot be broken and an experience of a lifetime.
Our members are incredibly invested in their campus involvement, community outreach, service to Breast Cancer Awareness and Education, academics, sisterhood, and much more. Feel free to look around our site and see how truly amazing it is to be a Zeta. ZTA is a lifetime of commitment, support, and opportunity awaiting you. It marks the beginning of a relationship that lasts far beyond your college experience.
who are we?
We are passionate. We are courageous. We are loyal and bright. The women of Zeta Tau Alpha are many things, but above all, we are sisters. Founded in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, the Theta Tau chapter has united women from all over the country under three single letters for years. Since 1979, Theta Tau has formed relationships, trained leaders, and introduced women to their forever friends. It is more than a sorority. It is a family, and it is our home.
Do you want to be a member of Theta Tau?
At ZTA, we welcome women into our chapter each fall through formal recruitment. This past fall, 67 girls ran home to us on bid day, and we couldn’t be more thrilled! We’re so excited to welcome more women into our sisterhood this year. If you're interested in our chapter there are many things you can do as a Potential New Member to learn more about us and to prepare for Panhellenic formal recruitment.
a message from our president
I am so honored to serve as President of Zeta Tau Alpha’s Theta Tau Chapter at UNC-Chapel Hill!
Coming to Carolina as an out-of-state student, I was hoping to find a home away from home—and the women of Theta Tau gave me exactly that. From the moment I met them during recruitment, I felt loved, seen, and truly supported. Since then, ZTA has given me the most genuine friendships and has allowed me to grow in ways I never imagined. The women I’ve met in this chapter continuously inspire me and challenge me to be the best version of myself—as a leader, a student, a friend, and a sister.
I’m beyond excited to advocate for our members and live out our values of humility, service, learning, and love in everything I do. This chapter is full of kind, passionate, and driven women who are always striving to make a difference—especially through our philanthropy, Breast Cancer Education and Awareness. I’m so proud to be part of a chapter that not only uplifts each other but also creates real impact in our community and beyond.
Thank you so much to the women of Theta Tau for trusting me with this role. To Allie Frerichs, Kaylynn Eichhorn, and Lex Casciano—thank you for paving the way and being such inspiring, supportive role models. I’m so lucky to follow in your footsteps.
Executive Council 2025 — let’s do great things together!
Zeta Love and Mine,
— Stella Prophater, Chapter President
