K hold conventions?
Since 1925, Omicron Delta Kappa has held national conventions every two years except during World War II. On January 10, 1920, The Johns Hopkins University Circle hosted OΔK’s first national convention in Baltimore, Maryland. During non-convention years, regional leadership conferences are held. How can my college form an OΔK Circle? OΔK is interested in establishing Circles that will be mutually advantageous to the institutions and to the Society. Circle charters are granted by the Board of Directors with a three-fourths vote of the active Circles in the province in which the petitioning Circle is located. Applications for charters are considered only from local honor societies or groups which represent four-year degree-granting institutions. The OΔK Manual, National Bylaws, Articles VIII and X, provide information on extension requirements and procedures for establishing a Circle. The National Vice-President for Extension may be contacted through National Headquarters.
