Woman of the Year
Kappa Zeta chapter has provided Zeta Phi Beta Sorority with two of its oldest and most long
standing traditions. The first Blue Revue, a national scholarship
observance, was held by Kappa Zeta in 1933. It later became a sorority-wide project when Kappa Zeta presented
the idea at the sorority's national conference that same year. Between the
years of 1946 and 1948, Marion Dillard introduced the idea of Woman of the Year to Kappa Zeta Chapter
and then later, presented the idea to the Southern Region of the sorority.
Today, Woman of the Year observances are included in most Finer Womanhood celebrations
throughout all chapters of Zeta Phi Beta.
Kappa Zeta chapter is continuing its rich legacy and annually recognizes a woman who exemplifies the
ideal of Finer Womanhood through her service in the community. Over the last 50 years,
numerous women in the Dallas area have been honored as Kappa Zeta‛s Woman of the Year.
