BETA TAU CHAPTER
Dr. Felix O. Chima, Chapter President & Advisor
The primary objective of Alpha Delta Mu is to encourage
and recognize superior scholarship in social work
education and to advance excellence in social work
practice. The Society feels that it serves the interest of the
students capable of excellence by insisting that in order to
acquire a chapter of Alpha Delta Mu, an institution must
provide the means and atmosphere conducive to
academic excellence.
