Last month, I had the opportunity to experience the "tapping"
ceremony for Omicron Delta Kappa (also known as The Circle and ΟΔΚ), a national
leadership honor society that recognizes not only academic achievement but also
leadership across five phases of campus life: scholarship; athletics; community
service, social or religious activities, and campus government; journalism,
speech and the mass media; creative and performing arts.
On April 3, I was proud to attend the spring ΟΔΚ induction ceremony in Monumental Chapel (view photo). Membership in this society is regarded as one of the highest collegiate honors that can be awarded to an individual. In order to be selected, one must be in the top 35 percent of students on their respective campuses and hold a leadership role in one of the five phases of campus life. The spring 2016 inductees join an impressive list of current ΟΔΚ members made up of VWC Board of Trustees, faculty, staff, and students.
Congratulations to the ΟΔΚ inductees for spring 2016:
Lauren Amos Crystal Lunkin
Ashlee Anderson Trevor Maloney
Courtney Bogan Tiffanie Marine
Tone Boykins Robert "Alex" McComb
Ajee Church Duncan Miller
Joanna Clark Marsha Montgomery
Fatima Davis Dustin Ogburn
Keane Dye David O'Rork
Sierra Garnett Ashley Peterson
Megan Gerhart Emily Powers
Emma Gustin Sheril Steinberg
