Iota Alpha
The local sorority Omega Epsilon Theta, founded at Robert Morris University in 1977,  became Iota Alpha chapter of the international sorority Zeta Tau Alpha in November 1980.  The local mascot of ZTA is the bunny but the symbol that bonds all Zetas internationally is the five-point silver crown.  The experiences of sisterhood that are shared among sisters of Zeta Tau Alpha will provide for a lifetime of memories that will always uphold the motto - "Zeta is forever."
