The 75th Anniversary edition of Alpha Zeta State Organization’s history is the third historical document published in New Jersey to capture the rich traditions and practices of the 30th state organization in The Delta Kappa Gamma Society International.
The Silver Anniversary History was compiled by Ora Lee Everts in 1963 and was dedicated “to the state founders and presidents with a deep sense of gratitude for their wisdom and loyal work in guiding the polices and activities of the Organization since its founding in 1938.”
Our Golden Anniversary was compiled by State Historian Dorothy W. Harp, with a dedication, composed by Dr.Harlene Galen of Eta Chapter, “to outstanding women educators who continue to invest in the world’s greatest resource, children.”
This Diamond Anniversary History is dedicated to our sponsors - those special women who shared the gift of Delta Kappa Gamma membership with us and thus helped promote our professional and personal growth, as well as excellence in education.
