Zeta Theta Lambda (ZTL) Chapter is part of Eastern Region, District V, Area II of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Incorporated. The only alumni chapter in Central Pennsylvania, ZTL sponsors two college chapters: Gamma Nu, at The Pennsylvania State University-University Park and Iota Sigma, at Gettysburg College, Franklin & Marshall College, Millersville and Shippensburg Universities.

 

The chapters’ membership has included professionals from all disciplines. In addition to its community service programs, the chapter holds the Andrew M. Bradley (ZTL '68) Scholarship Luncheon, and the Mr. Magnificent Pageant to raise funds to support a college tour for participants in Gentlemen & Scholars, the chapter's signature mentoring program. ZTL also hosts an annual Black & Gold Ball in December. This black tie affair is one of the most anticipated programs in the area. Finally, the chapter has two golf outings, one which benefits the Andrew M. Bradley Scholarship fund and another that serves as a fellowship opportunity for brothers and friends.
