KDP Attends Convocation In Houston
Today, with the expanding quality of professional
teachers, those who work in the professional education
program and exhibit worthy educational ideals and express their interest in the field of education are honored
by an invitation to become a member in the Iota Omega
Chapter of Kappa Delta Pi, a national honor society in
education. Membership is open to those students of
junior and senior status with the general scholarship of
a ranking grade in the upper one-fifth of the college.
Their motto is Knowledge, Duty, Power.
This year the fall initiation was held at the Plantation with Mr. Robert McCue speaking on the aspects of
special education in the Davenport school system.
