FOUNDED upon a Rock!

Happy Founders Day!!!
11/11/11

As our new members know very well by now, Gamma Phi Beta was founded at Syracuse University on November 11, 1874 by four amazing women!



Helen M. Dodge, Francis E. Haven, E. Adeline Curtis, Mary A. Bingham



"Since the rock is the firmest and most enduring substance, able to withstand the ravages of time, and offering the strongest protection, it seemed fitting that Gamma Phi Beta should be thus founded. Protecting, like the rock, those who enter our fold, a sure help in time of need, enduring to the end time - this is the wish for Gamma Phi Beta from one of the Founders."
- Eunice Adeline Curtis, Gamma Phi Beta Sorority, 1912
