Want to get involved on campus? Rush Zeta Phi Eta, the coed national professional fraternity in communication of arts and sciences, from Monday, Feb. 13, to Thursday, Feb. 16.
Degrees that are eligible for membership include communication, theatre, advertising, marketing, public relations, broadcasting, journalism and creative writing.
“Zeta Phi Eta brands itself as an organization that progresses individuals both professionally and personally,” said Elliot Free, senior vice president of Zeta Phi Eta. “Zeta has a strong presence within its department and across campus. We are constantly involved in philanthropic events on and off campus.”
The UT chapter of Zeta Phi Eta was started in 2014 and has already helped many students figure out what they want to pursue as a career.
“Being in Zeta has helped me learn more about the field of communication and where I belong within it,” said Savannah Joslin, president of Zeta Phi Eta. “I’ve been able to make connections that led to opportunities in the field I want to work in. Without Zeta, I would still be lost and pursuing a career that wasn’t for me.”
