Gamma Zeta Alpha Fraternity, Inc. is a unique fraternity in which brothers share a sense of awareness of their role in the Latino community and in our society. Recognizing their position as college students, leaders, professionals and role models, Gammas come together to become a positive and influential force throughout the state. Having Diabeties as our philanthrophy, has lead us to set up diabeties awarnes to the community as a whole.  The fraternity is structured to promote and enhance the academic, leadership and professional skills of our members. Gamma Zeta Alpha strides to develop the Latino leaders of the future.

One of the most important aspects of our fraternity is the manner in which we portray our brotherhood to the public. Since our inception, our image has been carefully conceived and presented. Our choice for Greek letters and fraternity colors reflect the consideration we undertook to ensure our Latino culture is well represented within our brotherhood. Our public image is further enhanced by the fact members of our fraternity do not consume alcohol while wearing our fraternity's Greek letters.

Finally, we stress and expect academic excellence by each of our brothers. The ultimate and most powerful image we present, as an organization, is a brother graduating from college. As an organization, Gamma Zeta Alpha believes producing college graduates is the most influential manner in which to help out Latino community. The expectations that come with being a Gamma are what sets Gamma Zeta Alpha apart from others. Being part of our family is a life-long commitment. Graduating from college is just the one phase in our never-ending involvement to our hermandad.  A wife of an Alumni member once asked, "When does your involvement in the fraternity end?" The answer was simple: NEVER. Roles and responsibilities will change, but a brother's commitment and involvement will always be welcomed. Our brothers will continue to improve our families, communities, and society; to do less is to not fulfill the expectations of being a GAMMA.
