I have heard that the BSO collegians were given the chance to affiliate but don't know if this is so. An updated history of ZTA is being worked on right now so maybe there will be more info there.

BTW...BSO's ritual books and paraphernalia are archived at ZTA's international HQ.

My daughter's 2nd grade teacher told me she had been a BSO at Indiana University of Pennsylvania (then, Indiana State Teachers' College) but it had been absorbed by another sorority her senior year and she didn't remember which sorority it was. I knew I could find that answer here on GC!
