Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:About Шаблон:Infobox Fraternity

Alpha Zeta (Шаблон:Lang) is an honorary professional fraternity for students and industry professionals in agricultural and natural resources fields.[1][2] It was founded in 1897 at Ohio State University and was the first collegiate society for agriculture.[1]

History

Charles W. Burkett and John F. Cunningham, roommates and students at the College of Agriculture at Ohio State University, founded the Alpha Zeta fraternity on November 4, 1897.[2] Three years prior, Burkett and Cunnigham had the idea of forming an organization to support agricultural students, create fellowship, and promote agriculture.[3] They recruited ten other agriculture students who became the fraternity's charter members, including [3] Шаблон:Columns-list

Alpha Zeta formed as a professional fraternity but became an honorary fraternity in 1936.[4] Its chapters were limited to land-grant institutions until 1951.[5]

At the fraternity's 1940 Conclave, a proposal was presented to open membership to non-white males.[3] This was presented at each Conclave for twelve years, finally passing in 1952.[6] Also in 1952, a proposal to admit women was defeated with a tied vote.[3] The fraternity's constitution was amended in 1972, allowing its chapters to initiate women.[3]

The fraternity was headquartered in Washington, D.C. in the 1960s.[6] It was located in Lafayette, Indiana from 1974 to 1994, when it moved to St. Louis, Missouri.[7] Its headquarters is currently located in Paducah, Kentucky. As of 2023, Alpha Zeta has chartered 74 chapters.[1]

Its print publication was the Quarterly of Alpha Zeta, first published in the early 20th century.[8][9][6] AZ News is now its primary publication.[2]

Symbols

The fraternity's badge is a monogram of the letter Шаблон:Lang on top of the letter Шаблон:Lang, with a small star at the center of the Шаблон:Lang.[6][2] Its key is the shape of two overlapping circles in gold and black.[6][2] Its colors are old gold (mode) and sky blue.[6][2] Its flower is the pink carnation.[10]

Charitable activities

In 1942, Alpha Zeta began issuing scholarships to a select number of members for graduate studies.[6] The Washington, D.C. Alumni Association helped form the National Alpha Zeta Foundation of America, Inc. in 1960, allowing the expansion of the scholarship program.[11][6] The foundation accepts and manages donations for "scientific, educational and charitable purposes which best advance agriculture for the public good."[11]

The Alpha Zeta Foundation, Inc. was formed in Indiana on April 4, 1984, to oversee the fraternity's national scholarship program and to support its leadership development program.[11]

Governance

The fraternity is overseen by a seven-member High Council that is elected by student representatives of each chapter at Biennial Conclaves held on odd calendar years.[2] The council includes the High Chancellor, High Censor, High Scribe, High Treasurer, High Chronicler, Alumni Representative, and student representative.[2] Alpha Zeta also has staff who oversee the fraternity's operations and communications.[2]

Membership

To be eligible for membership in Alpha Zeta, students must be majoring in agriculture or a related field, must have completed one year of study, and must be in the upper two-fifths of their class.[2] Prospective members are also evaluated for character and leadership.[2]

As of 2023, Alpha Zeta has initiated 125,000 members and has 1,000 active members.[1] Its membership types are student, alumni, associate, and honorary.[6] Honorary members can be nominated by chapters every ten years after their Charter date.[12]

Membership was limited to white males for the fraternity's first 55 years but became open to any male in 1952.[3] Membership was made open to women starting in 1972.[3]
