Empire State University Students Inducted Into Alpha Sigma Lambda Honor Society 

Empire State University held an induction for the Alpha Sigma Lambda honor society on December 1, 2025.    

Alpha Sigma Lambda is the oldest and largest national honor society for non-traditional students who meet exceptional academic standards and leadership requirements. During the ceremony, held virtually, 236 students were inducted into the Omega Tau chapter. To be recognized, students must complete a minimum of 24 credits toward an associate or bachelor’s degree at SUNY Empire, hold a cumulative GPA of at least 3.85, and participate in the annual induction ceremony.    

“This evening marks a significant milestone in the academic journey of some truly exceptional people,” President Lisa Vollendorf said. “Not only have you—tonight’s inductees—achieved academic excellence, but you did it while working full or part time, while raising families or caring for other family members, and while juggling all the responsibilities and obligations of being an adult in this increasingly complicated world.” 

Please join us in congratulating the new Empire State University inductees!
