Omicron Delta Kappa Welcomes Fall Initiates

The Hampden-Sydney College Lambda Circle of Omicron Delta Kappa (ODK) initiated 14 new members in its fall ceremony at College Church on October 19, 2025.

Hampden-Sydney’s chapter of ODK—a national leadership honor society for college men and women—was established at Hampden-Sydney in 1924. Membership is a mark of highest distinction and honor, and member selection is based on an individual’s influence as a campus leader to better campus life and to encourage high standards in all activities.
