Alpha Sigma Lambda

Kappa Delta Chapter

 

The Premier National Honor Society for Nontraditional/Adult Students

 

Mission Statement:

First in Scholarship and Leadership
Alpha Sigma Lambda National Honor Society is a nonprofit organization devoted to the advancement of scholarship and to the recognition of nontraditional students continuing their higher education. The Society was established in 1945-46 to honor superior scholarship and leadership in adult students.

Today, with nearly 200 institutional chapters throughout the United States, Alpha Sigma Lambda presents institutions with a truly prestigious opportunity to recognize the special achievements of adults who accomplish academic excellence, while facing competing interests of family, community and work.

For the nontraditional student, the society stands as an inspiration for continued scholastic growth, a builder of pride through recognition and an incitation to associates with similarly motivated students. For the chapter institutions, the society serves as a vehicle for imparting appreciation for adult students' academic achievements and contributions. Also, the society has been found to aid immensely in the recruitment and retention of nontraditional/adult students.

To this day Alpha Sigma Lambda is not only the oldest but also the largest chapter-based honor society for full- and part-time adult students.
