On December 9, 1933, twenty-two years after the founding of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., on the campus of Howard University, eight college graduate women applied for a charter to begin a chapter of Delta Sigma Theta in Chattanooga, Tennessee. These women were Eva Baker, Gussie Griffin, Lydia Henderson, Minerva Johnson, Onnie Nickels, Rose Upshaw, Lexine Weeks, and Martha White.
Eight years later, after a long and somewhat difficult process, the dream was realized. Beta Epsilon Sigma Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. was chartered in 1941 with fourteen (14) Charter Members with Soror Emma Jefferson serving as the Chapter's first President.
In 1951, ten years following the Chapter's charter, the Beta Epsilon Sigma Chapter became known as the Chattanooga Alumnae Chapter.
Currently, there are four (4) charter members who are still living, two of whom are local residents.
