The world shifted in 2020, so did the programming offered by the Zeta Beta Tau Foundation.

ZBT Live, an award-winning virtual program, was created for brothers to learn, connect and continue to enjoy the benefits of brotherhood while we couldn’t continue in-person programs.

The success and interest ZBT Live has among alumni and undergraduates has allowed the Zeta Beta Tau Foundation to continue bringing subject-matter experts to our Brotherhood to cover a variety of topics.

Upcoming programs include:
