Gamma Phi Beta

In 1874 , four women from Syracuse University came together to form a society they named Gamma Phi Beta. Helen M. Dodge, Frances E. Haven, E. Adeline Curtis and Mary A. Bingham were courageous women that could see beyond the limits of their time. The term "sorority" was coined specifically for Gamma Phi Beta in 1882 and has served as a pillar of true sisterhood, for its members since that time. Now over 135 years later, we celebrate the vision and dedication of those four founders and all who have followed to build Gamma Phi Beta into one of the largest and most well-respected sororities in the world.
