Lambda Alpha logo

Established in 1968, the purpose of Lambda Alpha National Anthropology Honor Society is to both acknowledge and reward academic excellence.  The name Lambda Alpha is composed of the initial letters of the Greek words Logos Anthropos (Λογος Ανθροποσ), meaning the study of humankind.

Lambda Alpha supports scholarship and research by acknowledging and honoring superior achievement in the discipline among students engaged in the study of anthropology.  Superior academic performance is recognized through membership in the society.  Lambda Alpha rewards academic excellence through the annual awarding of student scholarships, research grants, and student paper prizes.
