Founded at Ohio State University in 1897, Alpha Zeta is the "first and oldest collegiate society for agriculture." Alpha Zeta continues to serve as a professional society for those interested in the fields of Agriculture and Natural Resources.

Charles W. Burkett and John F. Cunningham founded Alpha Zeta during a time where the study of agriculture was not looked upon highly. Seeing a need to promote the field of agriculture, Burkett and Cunningham founded Alpha Zeta so students of agriculture and natural resources could collaborate and gain respect for the field of agriculture.
