Alpha Delta Pi is the first secret society for college women. It was founded on May 15, 1851 at Wesleyan Female College in Macon, Georgia. The original name for the sorority was the "Adelphean Society." Adelphean is derived from the Greek word meaning "sister". On February 17, 1973 the Zeta Eta chapter of Alpha Delta Pi was established at The University of North Alabama in Florence, Alabama. Alpha Delta Pi prides itself in living our open motto, “We Live for Each Other”, signifying the loyalty to our sisterhood. At Zeta Eta, we strive to encompass all types of young and ambitious women. Our sisterhood is strengthened by our diversity, and we pride ourselves on accepting and welcoming everyone.
