Harding senior participates in national leadership program
Harding University senior Gabby Marcellini, a Spanish major from
Miami, attended the Campus Leaders Today, Community Leaders
Tomorrow program sponsored by Omicron Delta Kappa March 10-13 in
Richmond, Va.
Omicron Delta Kappa is The National Collegiate Leadership Honor Society.
The program brought together 40 bright college leaders from across the
nation and is designed to prepare them for service as board members
for nonprofit organizations. The students traveled to Richmond for a
series of lectures and discussions and met with select nonprofit board
and staff members. This is the seventh year for the highly successful
program, which has become the signature program of Omicron Delta
Kappa.
The Omicron Delta Kappa Society, Inc., the National Leadership Honor
Society for college students, recognizes and encourages superior
scholarship, leadership and exemplary character. The organization was
founded Dec. 3, 1914, at Washington and Lee University in Lexington,
Va., by 15 student and faculty leaders. Omicron Delta Kappa was the
first college honor society of a national scope to give recognition
for meritorious leadership and service in extracurricular activities;
membership in the society is a mark of highest distinction and honor.
The organization is now present on the campuses of more than 300
colleges around the nation, including Harding University.
