A colony for the chapter was established in 1973. The charter was signed in January of 1976 and on March 28, 1976, recognition as Sigma Kappa Zeta was received from the National Fraternity office. Gerald Rodinsky and Marc Bonneau, with the help of the University of Michigan Sigma Zeta chapter, are credited with founding the fraternity at Eastern Michigan University.
