Each year, Sigma Circle of Omicron
Delta Kappa selects one of its members as "Col. J. Logan Schutz Omicron
Delta Kappa Leader of the Year." This person competes first on a
regional basis and then nationally for the very prestigious award of ODK
"National Leader of the Year." The University of Maryland is very honored to
have had three of our members selected as the "ODK National Leader of the Year"
-Marc Solomon in 1994, Hillary Cherry in 1997, and Adam Chepenik in 2003. In
2004, with the help of a generous donation from Col. J. Logan Schutz, the
Leader of the Year Award was renamed in his honor.

community life that are used in selecting regular members: Scholarship;
Athletics; Campus or Community Service, Social, Religious Activities, and
Campus Government; Journalism, Speech and the Mass Media; and the Creative and
Performing Arts.
