Omicron Delta Kappa is a national leadership honor society organized as a nonprofit entity based in Lexington, Virginia. It was founded in 1914 at Washington and Lee University by fifteen student and faculty leaders, with the aim of recognizing leadership of high quality and versatility in college life and fostering cooperation among representatives from all areas of campus life. As the first national-scale honor society to recognize meritorious leadership and service in extracurricular activities, ODK has since inducted more than 300,000 members. The organization recognizes achievement across five areas: scholarship; athletics; campus or community service, social and religious activities, and campus government; journalism and the mass media; and creative and performing arts. It operates through chapters at colleges and universities nationwide, reflecting its long-standing emphasis on campus citizenship and leadership development.
