History

Darrell Casteel, a student at Wichita State University, established Lambda Alpha on March 15, 1968.[1] Its purpose is to reward and acknowledge academic excellence in the field of anthropology.[2] The society's first faculty sponsor was Dr. Lowell D. Holmes.[1] This founding chapter became Alpha of Kansas.[1]

The charter members of Alpha of Kansas were:[3]

  • Nancy Alfonso
  • Leland K. Blazer
  • Frank V. Botteri
  • Charles L. Bole
  • Alice L. Brosius
  • Lester E. Bower
  • Jackson Carter
  • Darrell L. Casteel
  • Mary Susan Colcher
  • Howard Fries
  • Edward L. Greenamyre
  • Lonnie D. Halouska
  • Virginia A. Hawkey
  • Lowell D. Holmes
  • Lyle R. James
  • Jerry Martin
  • John McBride
  • Georgette Meredith
  • Marilyn K. Moore
  • Karen J. Morse
  • Wayne Parris
  • Ellen C. Rhoads
  • Jo Ann Rosenthal
  • Richard J. Ruppel
  • Karl Schlesier
  • Loring B. Smith
  • Sanford E. Swanson
  • Lucretia D. Vickery

Holmes and the charter members selected the name Lambda Alpha and created its constitution and its logo.[3] Casteel was elected the national and chapter president.[3] Colcher became the national secretary.[3] Holmes served as the Lambda Alpha executive secretary from its founding until 1973.[3]

Alpha of Indiana was chartered at Ball State University on July 9, 1968.[3] This was followed by Alpha of Pennsylvania at Alliance College in January 1969 and Alpha of Maryland at Bowie State University in April 1969.[1][3][4] In 1968, the society began planning the Lambda Alpha Journal of Man; the first issue was published in January 1969.[3][4] It included articles by faculty and students.[3] Wichita State University subsidized and published the journal.[3]

The national society was initially run by student members from Wichita State but this resulted in some problems.[5] In November 1973 Lambda Alpha established a national executive council.[1] Dr. Charles R. Jenkins, the faculty sponsor of Alpha of Pennsylvania, was selected to serve as the society's national executive secretary at that time.[1][3] He served in this capacity until he died in 1985.[6] [5]

Dr. B. K. Swartz Jr., founder of the Alpha of Indiana chapter at Ball State University, served as national executive secretary from November 5, 1985 to 2011.[1][5] Lambda Alpha Journal of Man became Lambda Alpha Journal in 1991.[1][5]

Symbols

The name is Lambda Alpha consists of the first letters of the Greek phrase Logos Anthropos (Greek: Λογος Ανθροποσ), which translates as "the study of man".[2][7] Today, the society uses "the study of humankind" as its mission statement.

The society's colors are red, white, and black. Its regalia stole is white with a gold globe and a blue insignia.[8] Its pen or key is one inch in length and is either of 10 carat white or yellow-gold filled.[9] The square center table of the key exhibits the letters of the society, Λ and Α, with a helm, scroll and globe placed in descending order between the letters.

Membership

Membership in Lambda Alpha is open to juniors and seniors who have completed twelve hours of anthropology courses with a 3.3 GPA in those courses and a 3.0 GPA overall.[10][11] Graduate students can also join.[10]

Activities

Lambda Alpha offers annual scholarships to students of anthropology, including its Lambda Alpha National Scholarship which awards $5,000 to seniors, and its Lambda Alpha Graduate Student Research Grants of $2,000.[12][13]

The society publishes the Alpha Lambda Annual Newsletter and an annual magazine, Lambda Alpha Journal, which consists of peer-reviewed student articles.[12][13] It also awards prizes for student papers.[2]

Governance

Dr. Ritu Gairola Khanduri is the society's executive director.[14]
