Eligibility for membership in Alpha Lambda Delta is based on a cumulative grade point average of 3.5 or better during the first term or year of college while a student is enrolled full-time. Achieving this high level of academic performance is an accomplishment that less than 20% of college freshmen reach.

Alpha Lambda Delta is advised by Brian Dingmann, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Biology and Honors Program Director, and Sara Kaiser, Student Experience/Parent Coordinator.

Founded in 1924 at the University of Illinois, Alpha Lambda Delta has over 245 chapters in the United States. The mission of Alpha Lambda Delta is to encourage superior academic achievement, to promote intelligent living and a high standard of learning, and to assist students in recognizing and developing meaningful goals in society. By becoming a member of this prestigious honor society, we encourage the maintenance of academic excellence throughout the college career and provide the opportunity to compete for scholarships and fellowships awarded by National Alpha Lambda Delta.
