This event is always a favorite among actives and new members as we get to sample delicious pizza from local restaurants in Ithaca. Our new members learned even more about the history and traditions of Alpha Zeta with guidance from our current actives throughout the pizza hunt. At the end of the night, they voted on their class pizza. The winner is: Napoli Pizzeria located in downtown Ithaca!
