Omicron Kappa Upsilon Beta Mu
Omicron Kappa Upsilon (OKU), the national dental society, was founded in 1914 at Northwestern University Dental School for the purpose of encouraging scholarship and advancing the ethical standards of the dental profession. The Touro College of Dental Medicine OKU Beta Mu Chapter is one of more than 50 active chapters in the United States and Canada. It was established on June 3, 2018, by alumni members of OKU who have demonstrated a commitment to scholarly activity and education and several distinguished faculty who were inducted as founding members of the chapter.
Each year, faculty and graduating students who demonstrate scholarship, exemplary traits of ethical character, and professionalism throughout their dental education and beyond are eligible for induction into the Touro College of Dental Medicine OKU Beta Mu Chapter by an election of its active members. Student inductees are selected from the top 20 percent of the graduating class.
