Triangle Iotas bring greetings to Eastern Region of Zeta Phi Beta

Triangle Iotas Polaris Stan Chambers Jr. brought special greetings to the women of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., as they gathered virtually for their 76th Eastern Regional Leadership Conference.

Chambers not only brought greetings, but also shouted out area sorority members who are influential in their respective communities.

We hope the women of the Eastern Region of Zeta Phi Beta have a successful virtual meeting.

Triangle Iotas named NC chapter of the year, Polaris named regional brother of the year

The Triangle Iotas won big for its community efforts during the 2020 Eastern Region Annual Regional Conference, receiving the most honors out of all chapters:

  • The Triangle Iotas were named the 2020 N.C. Alumni Chapter of the Year, and was a finalist for the Eastern Region Alumni Chapter of the Year.

  • Polaris Stan Chambers Jr. was named the 2020 Eastern Region Alumni Brother of the Year.

  • Epsilon Pi (East Carolina University), which is overseen by the Triangle Iotas, was named the 2020 N.C. Undergraduate Chapter of the Year.

“We are extremely humbled by the state and regional recognition for the work we’re doing in the community,” Chapter Polaris Stan Chambers Jr. said. “2020 has been a very challenging year for all of us, but these are the times in which black fraternities and sororities need to double down on their community impact. We’re elated for these honors, but the work doesn’t stop.”

The Triangle Iotas were recognized for its Time to Build Initiative, which include a five-part Voter Education Series done in partnership with the N.C. Black Alliance, and the Beta Pi Sigma and Theta Lambda Sigma alumnae chapters of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc.

Polaris Chambers was honored for his work in building up the fraternity in the Triangle, from revamping the chapter to conceiving the Time to Build Initiative, “deaning” a graduate line, and serving as advisor to Epsilon Pi, among other efforts.

Since Epsilon Pi was reactivated in 2019 following a 15-year hiatus, the chapter has been consistent in its efforts around intake, programming, and building the fraternity’s presence and reputation at a large school. Polaris Chambers is also the advisor for Epsilon Pi.

“Stay tuned, for we’re just getting started,” Chambers said.
