What is the formal designation of Zeta Phi Beta at the national level?

• A. Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated
• B. Zeta Phi Beta Fraternity
• C. Zeta Phi Beta Club
• D. Zeta Phi Beta Association

Answer: (A)

When identifying the national designation, the organization uses Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated. Here’s why that name fits best: the word “sorority” signals that this is a women’s Greek-letter organization, and “Incorporated” shows it is a legally registered corporation that governs the national body and its chapters. This formal naming is how the national organization is recognized in official materials and documents, across conventions, certifications, and chapter affiliations. The other options miss the correct gender designation or the formal corporate status—fraternity is typically for male groups, while club or association do not reflect the official national corporate identity used by Zeta Phi Beta.
