Zeta Amicae are women who believe in and support the ideals of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., but have not attended college. Under the administration of Soror Lullelia Harrison, the first Amicae chapter was organized in Omaha, Nebraska in 1947, making Zeta the first sorority in the National Pan-Hellenic Council to organize an auxiliary group. Friends and relatives of Zeta Phi Beta members, who have not completed a college degree are especially encouraged to apply for membership. As early as 1940, graduate chapters of Zeta Phi Beta began to realize the importance of the prestige, good will and cooperation of women who, for various reasons, were not members of any Greek-letter organization.
