Which sorority was founded on January 16th, 1920?

• A. Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Inc.
• B. Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Inc.
• C. Zeta Phi Beta Sorority Inc.
• D. Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority Inc.

Answer: (C)

That date marks the founding of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. It was founded January 16, 1920 at Howard University in Washington, D.C., by five women—Arizona Cleaver Stemons, Pearl Anna Neal, Myrtle Tyler Faithful, Viola Tyler Goings, and Fannie Pettie Watts. The other sororities listed were established on different dates: Alpha Kappa Alpha in 1908, Delta Sigma Theta in 1913, and Sigma Gamma Rho in 1922. So January 16, 1920 is uniquely tied to Zeta Phi Beta, making it the correct choice.
