Our History
Theta Phi Alpha's Beta Nu Chapter was founded in 1991 at Florida Atlantic University and continues to strive on campus. After 20 years the values and devotion of the sisters continues to spread across the University. Promoting our own values of leadership, scholarship, friendship, and sisterhood the Beta Nu Chapter at Florida Atlantic University continues to build stronger sisters and shape women into dynamic leaders.
The founding of Theta Phi Alpha is a story of a group of young friends, much like the members of today. They were faced with a myriad of challenges and issues on their campus. By joining together, they provided support and friendship to one another, to meet the challenges that they faced and to create an organization that would enable future generations to share that sisterhood. We recognize the contributions of the sisters who have gone before us and acknowledge that, without them, our experience today would be very different.
Theta Phi Alpha was founded in 1912 by a small group of Catholic women who were struggling to fit in. Since then Theta Phi Alpha has opened its doors to all faiths, and around the country promotes leadership, scholarship, friendship, and sisterhood.
The mission of Theta Phi Alpha is… to create close comradeship to advance educational, social and philanthropic interest and leadership training to encourage spiritual development and adherence to the highest moral standards and to promote life long bonds of friendship
