International Sociology Honor Society
Alpha Kappa Delta is the international sociology honor society.
The society's purposes are to promote interest in the study of sociology and
to use sociology to improve the human condition. Past members have presented
their own research papers at professional sociology meetings. The AKD also
sponsors a local and a national paper competition every year.
Alpha Kappa Delta takes it name from the first letters of three Greek words.
anthropon = human kind
katamanthanein = to investigate thoroughly
diakonesein = for the purpose of service
When this phrase is translated freely, it expresses both the goal and the method of Alpha Kappa Delta.
