The Office for New Student Programs and the Office of the Provost coordinates the induction ceremony for the Oracle Honor Society.  Presently, at the end of the full freshman year, students in the top ten percent of each School are invited to accept membership.  Oracle members believe that these able freshmen will indeed contribute leadership, loyalty, and service to Ithaca College during their subsequent years here.

 

The Oracle Society is founded upon the symbol of the star.  The five points represent the attributes of excellence for which members of Oracle aspire: Scholarship, Leadership, Loyalty, Service, and Character.  The laurel wreath around the star represents the achievements of Oracle members.  The wall represents the courage and fortitude shown in order to achieve the ideals of the society, and the light is a beacon for Oracle members in the future.  The olive branch is the emblem of peace -- the talisman for all Oracle members.
