There are six societies that take part in Tap Day and I was tapped into Omicron Delta Kappa. ODK is a national leadership honor society that recognizes students who have attained a high standard of efficiency in collegiate activities and inspire others to strive for noticeable achievements. I was one of 25 students inducted into ODK this year. I am a biomedical engineering major and mathematics minor and will graduate this December. For this honor, I recognized three organizations that have made a lasting impact on my collegiate career. I chose Tri Delta, Engineering Ambassadors, and the Thompson Laboratory for Regenerative Orthopaedics, where I work as a research assistant.
