As a student-focused organization, we provide a variety 
of opportunities and experiences that positively impact 
our members, their schools, and communities across the 
nation and around the world. Since launching in 1934, we

Beta’s mission originated with Dr. John W. Harris, a professor at Wofford College in Spartanburg, South Carolina, who founded the organization in 1934. Over 80 years have passed, but his vision and Beta’s mission has remained the same.
