Colony to Chapter: Earning a Reputation on Campus

October 30, 2018 | Posted In AGRelevance

Gamma Zeta Chapter at Arkansas Tech University (ATU) is the newest installed chapter of Alpha Gamma Rho Fraternity. In a time when Greek life has become highly controversial, the men of the former Alpha Gamma Rho colony set out to prove something before becoming an official chapter, and quickly earned themselves a reputation on ATU’s campus.

Colony to Chapter

Since the spring of 2016, the group of over 20 collegiate men worked hard as a colony to represent AGR and the Greek community through their excellent scholastic and community service records. Within the last two years, the group has grown to become one of the larger fraternities on campus with a great social and professional reputation.

The AGR colony has been looking forward to becoming an official chapter and the men are excited to have the full resources of the National Fraternity and their Interfraternity Council. The group expressed their hopes of eventually having a chapter strong enough to own a chapter house in the future.

During Business Session II of the AGR National Convention on Friday, August 3, 2018, AGR’s colony at Arkansas Tech University petitioned to be installed as an official chapter. The delegation of the 2018 National Convention was impressed with their membership petition and enthusiastically voted to welcome the colony as the Gamma Zeta Chapter. Gamma Zeta Chapter of Alpha Gamma Rho at Arkansas Tech University was officially installed on October 13, 2018.
