Sigma Delta Kappa was established in 1914 by six law students at the University of Michigan School of Law.

Sigma Delta Kappa seeks to provide dedicated, career-oriented law students with the ability to communicate with, and assist one another in the twin aims of self-progress and community improvement. Sigma Delta Kappa aims to fulfill these goals through involvement with a national organization that possesses the tools and resources necessary to aid our progressive, giving members and the population they serve.

The University of Baltimore chapter of Sigma Delta Kappa is a student organization dedicated to serving the Baltimore area as community members first, and law students second. Members exemplify moral and ethical standards of conduct and commitment, striving to be leaders and examples in the student community.


Sigma Delta Kappa is a non-profit organization open to all law students. There are no minimum GPA requirements, and members are welcome and encouraged to be involved with more than one organization.

The University of Baltimore Chapter of Sigma Delta Kappa has recently been reactivated from dormant status. Sigma Delta Kappa plans to focus much of its energy on community service, while helping to build strong bonds among student members.
