Randolph inducts more than 70 into national leadership society

Omicron Delta Kappa inductees

On Friday night, Randolph College inducted more than 70 students, faculty, and staff into Omicron Delta Kappa, the National Leadership Honor Society.

Omicron Delta Kappa recognizes and encourages superior leadership and exemplary character, and encourages collaboration among members across five phases: scholarship, athletics, service, communications, and arts. Founded in 1914 at Washington and Lee University, Omicron Delta Kappa honors and develops leaders through scholarships, workshops, career opportunities, leadership resources, and a lifelong connection to other members.

Randolph’s long list of 2018 inductees are the first from the College since April 2007. Tara S. Singer, executive director for Omicron Delta Kappa, presided over the ceremony Friday.
