The chapter is inactive. Lambda Zeta chapter activated 2/7/54 and went
inactive in 1968.

Cool.

The first person for him to write to is the National Building a new
chapter co-ordinator and her name is Betty Rauch (apobanc@aol.com). Help
in Wisconsin would come from the Section 27 chair Terri Steigelman
<steigelm@aol.com>, the Region IX director Tanya Refshauge
<tanyakr@aol.com> and from the active chapters in Wisconsin, UW-Stout and
UW-Eau Claire. Both chapters have web sites, so should be reasonably easy
to contact. Since both of those chapters are in the western part of the
state, chapters in Northern Illinois may also by able to help, but that
would be decided after initial contacts.
One thing in terms to tracking down Lambda Zeta's history at Ripon, there
was a local social fraternity called Alpha Phi Omega at Ripon during some
of the same time that our service fraternity was there. It has since gone
National with Phi Delta Theta. I have more info on that if you want.
